[NTLUG:Discuss] Anyone here use Gentoo?

[Brain Kontrath]

Gentoo is incredible, I use it on all my machines.  The processor based
optimizations  used to compile the source code probably
make it the fastest Linux distribution possible. Gentoo is the first 
distribution where you build the system entirely from source code.  The 
only down side is that installing X and a window manager (like KDE) can 
easily take a day or more ---and this on a cable connection. I should 
also mention that Gentoo is not for 1st time Linux users. Gentoo is 
really geared toward hard-core do-it-yourself penguins with command line 
experience.  But if you really feel the need for speed and you want 
things done your way, Gentoo is the only way to go.
