I'd choose Slackware. Mandrake dinks with the kernel and makes a lot
of other "helpful" decisions for you that you really prefer to make
yourself. Slackware is lean and clean. As a result, I think it is
faster and easier to maintain because you don't have to decipher Mandrake's
way of doing things (or Red Hat's, or SuSE's, or...).
