	One thing you might want to know about in regards to Slackware and
FreeBSD is that they really don't have all the gui admin tools that
RedHat has. If you're one that needs Linuxconf and that sort of thing to
get you through then you might not enjoy the others too much. You can
install some admin tools if you need them (webmin, etc.) but they're not
in there by default. If you're one that likes to edit start up scripts
and all that kind of stuff by hand then these two (especially FreeBSD)
might just be your ticket.
