Nah, Gentoo is very nice, for those who have time to customize everything and build everything from source. Ubuntu just works. I don't have as much time to tinker as I used to, but I still love linux. So I moved to an environment that allows me to use my preferred environment, and is set up pretty much the way I like it, out of the box. I still like gentoo, I just wish they had a binary release so I didn't have to wait for everything to compile.
You can't imagine how much fun it is to install a new version of KDE in the time it takes to download packages + 1 minute to install. Gentoo, eat your heart out :) -joel -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Roger E.
