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."
Guess it's not that clear that they definitely won't... |
