 [Slackware|http://www.slackware.org] was first released in 1993 by Patrick Volkerding. [Version 12.0|http://www.slackware.org/announce/12.0.php] is the most recent release. Slackware ships with KDE by default. If you would rather prefer Gnome, you can get them from [droplineGNOME|http://www.droplinegnome.net], [GWARE|http://www.gware.org] and other projects like the [GSB Project|http://www.gnomeslackbuild.org]. The [Slax|http://www.slax.org] project helps fit Slackware on to a 128MB USB disk.
