You sure you wanna stress the processor with that much compiling, I
honestly can't see the point of gentoo myself. Its too hackish to be
useful IMHO, ubuntu, suse and fedora are much more popular because they
don't take 2 days to install properly.

But hey, if you wanna go down that route, then its your choice. 

BTW: I think my laptop looks better ;)

and its made of metal, the OS is brilliant, XiNU (X is Not Unix) kernel
and system.ui are very well designed, shame its not as fast as Xgl but I
have my desktop for that so I don't mind.

K,
