The AdvLUG will be installing Gentoo for the next few months. If you
are interested come on out. Just watch or bring your laptop for a hands

For a LiveCD (don't know if that means what it normally means) of Gentoo:

There's even one for the Mac (PPC), although its a slightly older version:

We produce Gentoo Linux, a special flavor of Linux that can be automatically optimized and customized for just about any application or need. Extreme configurability, performance and a top-notch user and developer community are all hallmarks of the Gentoo experience.
Thanks to a technology called Portage, Gentoo Linux can become an ideal secure server, development workstation, professional desktop, gaming system, embedded solution or something else -- whatever you need it to be. Because of its near-unlimited adaptability, we call Gentoo Linux a metadistribution.

Rumors that I've heard about Gentoo is that you spend much of your time compiling. Is that fair to say?
