Conclusion:
For a development release, I find sidux quite good and steady. The absence of a graphical package manager is a big drawback to Linux newbies, but its speed, responsiveness and light footprint makes it an ideal OS for older computer machines.

sidux may have successfully seduced me, but I have to wait and try the Distribution Release so that I can properly and fully express my desire for this fine distro.

The overall look is pretty sleek; the artworks from Grub menu to the main desktop has a pleasant aura.


I like the new wallpaper and kdm theme...very sleek. When do we get it through the updates?

it is already available

Code:
apt-get install sidux-art-wallpaper-eros sidux-art-kde-eros


changing artwork via dist-upgrade would not be a good idea.

And the author's comment to that comment? "I’m hoping that the developers can work out the Synaptic issue very soon." Question
Guess it's not that clear that they definitely won't...
