I have tried several different distros of Linux including Mandrake (now Mandriva), Redhat, Fedora, Debian, SuSE to name a few and I must say once I started using Gentoo I cannot go back to any other distro, I tried when Debians latest version came out, but I just could not move away from Gentoo. As for a Windows Manager I have played around with both KDE and Gnome but I prefer the simplicity of Fluxbox. The combination of Gentoo with Fluxbox works especially well on older laptops with low resources.

I would have to agree with you 100% on this though. Once you get everything working properly and you look back at where you started you can not help but feel proud of it.

Well that is my 2 cents on the subject.
