Need a nudge in right direction...

Hi folks, I'd like to move away from the current distro I use as I don't feel it's moving in a good direction (I use openSUSE and have been using it since 7.3 IIRR, ~2000. With SuSE/openSUSE climbing into bed with M$, things will not turn out good). I've looked and looked lately at many different distro's. Gentoo and Lunar looked very promising except that I live on a very small fixed income and am stuck with a dial-up only connection and both of those distro's really would be too difficult to operate without a fat pipe. So, I've decided to go with Slackware (it too won't be exactly 'easy' with dial-up, but it's going to be a better distro than what I have I believe). My dilemma with this though - I unfortunately can't afford the forty dollars for the DVD/CD set at the Slackware store. Is there somewhere I can give LinuxCD.org an URL so they can burn the latest Slackware for me? I realize 13.37 is the 'official' latest, but since it's been a year, I'd sure like to have the 'actual' latest (I hope that makes sense). I'm just not sure where to go or start and could sure use a little help with this. Thanks, JB -- I mean....if I went 'round sayin' I was an emperor just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away! -Dennis from Monty Python and the Holy Grail
