About

Developers are much more productive on Ubuntu than handcrafted embedded Linux. Sharing a platform shares the cost. Licensing is cheaper, updates more tested and maintenance shared. Familiar and widely used Ubuntu means easy CI/CD, better tools, faster updates and better kernels. Linux is not a differentiator. Use pre-enabled boards and focus on software unique to your story. Managing a familiar environment and platform is easier and cheaper than a specialist OS. Naturally. More Linux developers choose Ubuntu, so the talent pool is deeper and broader. Tap the biggest talent pool. Ubuntu is ahead of the pack by every measure. Productivity starts with reuse. Accelerate developers with the world’s largest package selection.

About

After a long development cycle (including many betas and release candidates to get everything just exactly perfect) we're pleased to announce the availability of the new stable release. You'll find updates throughout the system, with the latest development tools and recent versions of applications, window managers, desktop environments, and utilities. The Linux kernel is updated to version 4.4.14 (part of the 4.4.x kernel series that will be getting long-term support from the kernel developers). We've brought together the best of these and other modern components and worked our magic on them. If you've used Slackware before, you'll find the system feels like home. Want to give Slackware 14.2 a test drive without modifying your disk drive? Then check out Slackware Live Edition! This is a complete Slackware installation that can run from a CD, DVD, or USB stick. Build scripts for all kinds of additional software for Slackware 14.2 are also available.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Extremely stable even the rolling version (current) is more stable than most production systems. Does not alter upstream packages unless absolutely necessary. It follows a consistent Unix base so you learn Gnu Linux linearly and your knowledge is generic.

Cons

  • It is not suitable for users who are unwilling to learn some terminal commands and how the system works behind fluffy GUIs.
