Gentoo Linux 2008.0
,----[ Quote ]
| When it comes to the GNOME LiveCD, they have switched from using GNOME to
| Xfce. Switching to this lightweight desktop environment was done to conserve
| space on the LiveCD image. Once using the LiveCD installer to install to a
| disk, you will be left with Xfce 4.4.2, but KDE or GNOME can be built from
| the Portage source. With Gentoo 2008.0 there is no x86 or AMD64 LiveDVD this
| time around (at least not for now) due to a decision by the release
| engineering team to avoid delaying the 2008.0 release any further.

Why I Use Gentoo?
,----[ Quote ]
| So, I have been asked this question many times. And of course the assumption
| is that I am some sort of a masochist who enjoys wasting time on compiling
| packages. However, that is not entirely true. There are some other reasons
| why, after trying Ubuntu (started linux with it), Gentoo and then Arch I
| settled on Gentoo.

| Security issues make me wary of small businesses supporting their own e-mail

| attract so many attacks. Sutus avoids these issues by using a hardened
| version of Gentoo Linux with all non-essential services stripped out.

Review: Zonbu, the $99 [Gentoo] Linux Computer
,----[ Quote
| There's a lot to like about Zonbu, including its three-year replacement
| warranty. With your configuration information and all your data backed up in
| the Zonbu online storage space, when you plug in, you can restore your
| machine instantly. As an added plus, Zonbu is environmentally friendly; the
| company claims the computer uses a fraction of the electricity of a standard
| PC, which will cut down on your company's electricity costs.
