Re: gEDA-user: Some Linux distros to consider

[Kenneth Long <kelong_2000@xxxxxxxxx>]

I like Gentoo for me. I like how it manages packages
and avoids the dependency from out of date libraries.
I installed the latest redhat on a machine recently
and it felt like installing XP.  It was beautiful.
That machine will probably stay with redhat, but my
kids use it for web surfing. Its not one that I use
regularly. 

My $0.02.
