Cool!  I hope you like it as much as the others here - it's a great
system for a lot of uses.

It's really nice.  I like it a lot, however, I still think I need to
find a way to use distcc with my faster windows box - compiling stuff
on a pentium-m is excrutiatingly painful!

Yeah, Gentoo's worderful, just a little difficult to use at times if
you're not a seasoned Linux guru.

I wasn't trying to be rude, and you're certainly not idiotic - I just
think it's to everyone's benefit to read the docs.  Gentoo has very good
documentation.

I just seem to find them hard to find!  Look carefully for a link on
the Gentoo home page to the (excellent) Gentoo Wiki.  Not there - at
least that I can find.

Gentoo's got some great docs... just a little hard to find 'em.  That's all.

And trust me, I read many man pages before firing off this email.  I
did my homework ; )
