you know what? i agree. ubuntu knocks the socks off gentoo. gentoo is a good idea. i am running right now a dual boot (actually ternary (?) boot) of winxp pro, gentoo, and ubuntu. i ran into just about every problem in the book installing gentoo and finally got it working when the login crashed. i installed ubuntu in my spare space and it's awesome. you *could* compile everything yourself but downloadable binaries are waaaaaaaaay faster than compiling everything. when i have programming homework to do and have to install a new dev package I don't always have five hours to sit waiting for compile. btw distcc+ccache+flag optimization barely make a noticable difference. i like gentoo, i just like ubuntu better.
