Used to have Gentoo Stage 1 install but then got a girlfriend and needed spare time.
ahaha fair enough, arch has many people switching over from Gentoo who got tired of all the compiling.

Hackintoshes are fucking fast. What hardware are you running it on? Have you had any stability issues?

I had to use some kind of Linux at uni when I was doing CSE. Never really got the full hang of it. XP SP2 4 life. People can knock windows but SP2 is fucking stable and fast.

After reading about it, I want to do this (again). Apparently 10.4.3 will suck my nForce3 and SATA HDD off and then turn around and let my 9800 Pro fuck it from behind. 10.4.7 might be able to too.

10.5.2 is running now. I have a custom box so to go into the specs would take a while... I had to patch ethernet and audio, but that is virtually expected. My 8800gt is running great too. So, no complaints for a fun and free OS. :uhhuh:

What CPU/Chipset are you using? Also IDE or SATA hard drive? I'm not entirely sure why mine didn't work, at first I thought it was teh ATI card, but when I used my sister's Nvidia it had a different problem, but with the same result.
