Another possible reason: Slink is too old! (As far as I know, it doesn't support my video card well or at all - it's a TNT2)
Potato is a pain in the butt to install over a modem! So... for me at least, it makes a lot of sense to install a Corel Linux system, then just install extra packages that I want from Potato. If I had a fast connection (like at work) I would just install Potato - but I don't (stuck on a 28.8), and I don't really want to be downloading stuff for 2 or 3 days. Is that reason enough? :) -David G.
