Subject: [gentoo-dev] Terrific!!! Gentoo rules.

Just thought i'd take the time to comment on how thoroughly impressed I am
with gentoo. I'm by no means a linux guru, however i have installed and
fooled around with a variety of Free OS's including OpenBSD, FreeBSD,
Debian Woody, Redhat 7/2, mandrake 7&8 (I think those were the versions)
and slackware 8. the only reason I never stuck with one of them is
because there was always a couple peices of software that iwanted that i
couldn't get working properly. I installed Gentoo just yesterday
afternoon and i've already got everything that i want installed and
running properly. I love the ports-style package management (although i
would have been up and running alot quicker if I didn't have to compile
kde3!! :) as someone who is trying to find a viable alternative OS, i can
assure you that the best thing about gentoo is that i can install
virtually anything i can think of extremely easily, and its all up to date
software, its similar to what Iliked about debian, but if you want
software thats more recent that 1998 you have to use an unstable branch,
which is terribly hard to work with.
Keep up the good work!
Andre
