Re: GENTOO

I built two more Gentoo boxes at work this week, my desktops at home & work Gentoo, and now nearly half of the *NIX boxen in my data centre are Gentoo. I'm certainly a fan. :) I've made some converts from Debian, Red Hat, and uBuntu since I started my job!
Gentoo is my favourite Linux distro. It especially gives a performance boost on G4 PPC Macs as most binary PPC distros are compiled for the original PPC. Unfortunately I can't use it (at least not the way it was intended) at work as we are not allowed to hook up our machines to the evil Internet. Sometimes I cheat and use dial-up but that's too slow to be useful.
Regards,
Doug
