First released in February this year, CollegeLinux is a new Linux distribution based on Slackware [1] and aims to provide an easy installable operating alternative for students [2][3].
[via desktoplinux 4] Professor David Costa, Dean of Robert Kennedy College (RKC) in Switzerland: \”Slackware is — in my opinion — one of the best distros in terms of stability and structure. I don\’t think that another Red Hat-based distribution can add something relevant to the original base. We wanted to have a user friendly environment but also a learning experience for the user, being himself a student or not. Furthermore, I think that Slackware package system is much more reliable them \’rpm\’.\”
