OK.  Slackintosh is GREAT.

FYI, I run Slackintosh 12.0 on two machines - a 300MHz G3 wallstreet and a 
400MHz G3 iMac DV.  Plus I run Slackware 12.0 on several x86 machines.  I've 
NOT installed Slack* 12.1 on any machine.  I prefer to wait for even numbered 
releases.  I will upgrade some x86 machines from Slackware 12.0 to 12.2.

I guess I'll have to download 12.1 packages so I can get weather forecasts 
working again in xfce.

Thanks again for Slackintosh!
