Don't forget the BSDs, I like FreeBSD (almost as much as Slackware).

Well, I suppose that's one way to look at it.
I consider that one Slackware ported to more than one platform.

Some people might include distros like Slax in their definition of "Slackwares".
I would not agree with that. That is why I asked.

Not much Slack talking going on here and I can't see what the aim is really. Because bringing confusion to the mods is not a good thing to do I am closing this thread.
