This is rather relative, your still dealing with a fairly decent Machine

it self takes 40mins even when I've cut it down to only the modules and
bits required to run on my computer! The kernels I compile won't run on any
other machine unless they have the same cpu, mobo, sound card, network card

Hi, yeah far enough. On a slower computer Gentoo's probably not the best option (likewise Gentoo may not be the best option on a dialup connection)...But when you upgrade or buy a new one, you'll be able to run Gentoo :).
