Hello,
Just a few comments regarding SL from my brief experience of installing 
on rplay26.

The installation went smooth enough that I could not tell the difference 
between it and the other machines. 

In editing, there was one positive difference.  The problem I have 
editing remotely with the xemacs-21.4 appears gone in SL.  For those who 
haven't heard my ranting and raving, it is that when working at TAMU 
(and at home) that when I do a cut or a copy to the clipboard, there is 
an 11 second delay when using xemacs-21.4 on RH8 or RH9.  This was 
absent in earlier versions of xemacs (eg 21.1) that was shipped with the 
RH 7.x  I had blamed it on xemacs, but now with SL, the problem appears 
gone.  So it seems something with the OS.  So for doing some work from 
TAMU or my home, I say do the upgrade ASAP.

Kris
