I've chosen a *big* harddisk so I'll probably go for all three to see what
they do. However, the main reason why I did not switch to Gentoo is I was
lazy - my double Athlon has been running Mepis for over two years with little
changes so I justed sticked to running it so.
Changing my main machine seems the good time to switch and get more control
over the system. I just tested emerge --update --deep world on my 32bit
Gentoo and all went well (I just had to set the Displamanager back to kdm by
hand) and while I prefer apt-get to SuSE's rpms, nothing beats emerge.

The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be a
capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the
safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
