gentoo owns all other distro's for package management in order to use gentoo or any other source build nix's/bsd u have to have a better understanding of the OS. Companies often look at how familiar you are with a desktop and if a user says they are comfy with gentoo or bsd they often get good brownie points. debian can also be really good for this and has a decent package management syste

Also dling Mepis have never looked at it.
So is my thinking right here.
I presently have xp on master and ubuntu on slave...using grub.
I should be able to use Gparted to make a new partion on the slave drive without disturbing ubuntu in order to install and look at other distros. right? And the new install would show up in grub and be bootable.
Little rusty on this haven't used a partition utility since partition magic and win 98

I opened a binary file by accident in the xorg stuff and didnt know how to quit VI, i ended up turn the file into garbled ascii. It took me two more days of compiling to get that file going again :S

you can't really say a single package owns all, each have their own advantages and disadvantages. I use 5 different linux distros at work from DSL, debian, FC4, Unbuntu and Suse linux 10, and the most user friendly and noob friendly is probably suse but thats my opinion. Its very good for people moving from windows to linux and its their first contact with an alternative OS to windows, the environment that Novell has created is a very user friendly one and the Yast control panel is great for setting up your box. However OS i really like is DSL as it is a very light distro and uses hardly any system resources very good if you want to run it on a extremely old box like the ones i have at work, you can SSH and VNC and has a light desktop which is what i need my main box to do to get into the main servers so thats my personal fav plus i have it running off my pendrive!.
I can say that RHEL package management gets OWNED by all...right?
I get stuck with that at work sometimes, what a pain in the arse
