Mandrake sucks!!

J/k. I have it loaded on a machine here. Just haven't take much time to learn it.

That is a bannable offense. Edit your statement and check my second sig.

I said it before and didn't get banned. Of course, the mods probably weren't watching as closely. This thread is sure to get their attention though. :D

There is some leeway, but not much. Earlier this week a member got banned for using it.

I took it for my sig about 6 months or so ago. That was his only warning.

why the hell does everybody think that gentoo is nothing but waiting. I only had to wait during the initial install. If you can't spare a day of computing...*shrug*

Heh just my personal experience when I tried it. Wait while installing, wait for ever when upgrading, etc. I don't remember how fast my machine was I tried it on, but I'll admit it was slow. I don't see the benifit of the waiting is my main problem. If I had time to burn, sure it might be cool and fun to hack around with, but if I have things to do, spending a day configuring a machine uses alot of my time, let alone waiting a day before I can even start to configure it.
