One of the reasons the distros exist is so that you can have a good OS
without having to compile everything yourself.  Sure I could compile it
myself, but if RedHat (or Debian, or whoever I choose to trust) is willing
to do it for me, I can be doing something else instead.  Compiling isn't
generally painful, but it's not particularly fun either. 

As an aside, I posted a while ago wondering if anyone's ever gotten cheap
integrated motherboards to work... I decided the work wasn't worth the
financial savings.
