I have a beta copy of it - it looks nice - they just need to optimize some
speed issues and it's ready to go.  graphics are beautiful, install is a
breeze, and it's even glibc-linked - so you can just drop it into any
Redhat or TurboLinux system (yeah, I tested it on TL) and it works.
Slackware might be a different story, however.  Dang my connection is slow
today, still waiting for the first two lines of my typing here to echo
