A few months ago I was a Slackware Junkie. I loved it, and laughed at those who used 'more automatic' distributions (ok, I didn't actually laugh). Then Arch Linux 0.5 came out and I was very intrigued by it. I was getting tired of having to compile updated packages myself.

I'll be testing Arch on an alternate partition setup on my laptop tonight. Currently Ive got an install of Gentoo on there, which took a painstaking amount of time to setup, but if Arch does as well as Gentoo I might just consider switching over!
The only thing I'm worried about is the package base, though I'm perfectly able to do things myself, I'd rather be using the inbuilt manager. Maybe I'll just have to contribute to the incomming folder!
