I've been using linux for awhile and I couldn't find a distro that had any control but was there for you when you didn't have a lot of time to work out the kinks. I remember RH's RPM hell and I switched to slackware..then more hell when I wanted to stay current(back when I loved gnome). I recently grabbed a dual Xeon intellistation off eBay and figured I'd want to compile everything from source for my performance loving self. Then I found Gentoo..and..emerge..and I'm sold..for life..no problems, EVER.</p> <p>-Avinash :)</p> Hey man,
