Ian recently 'persuaded' me to build an LFS box, and although it took
forever (the ADHD in me kept saying - 'give up, use RH!'), he is right
in that you learn a lot more about Linux than you would otherwise. I am
also impressed at how fast it is - perticularly booting...

Having said that I am far from being a newbie - I have been using RedHat
and Debian for 6 years now.
