Debian and its clones In my never ending search for the ultimate challenge, I decided to remove Gentoo Linux from my trusty laptop and install something else that wasn't as resource starving. Thus, Debian was selected.

Gentoo

I like Gentoo. Up2date repositories. No dependency problems. However...LOL. You need some power for compilation or you going to get frustaded after a while. So for old hardware I try what others have recommended: DSL, Ubuntu, ... But if you have a good machine, even a 64 system then go with gentoo. You are going to have some fun, and a distribution without many complications. Dont get scare about what people say. Go with stage 1 instalation. I am not a pro, and I didnt have any problem. Gentoo has a great documentation.
