Yep, that and it was my expression of undying affection for Arch

Re: Why the HELL did I ever try any other distro?

I forgot to set up speedstepping for my laptop on gentoo my freshman year of college....

I had to send in my laptop to get my cpu, motherboard, and hd replaced as they had melted a little.

Then I looked around for another distro

Sounds more like user error then a Gentoo problem.
Arch is nice though I'm glad I've started dual booting it. Definitely has its ups.

Re: Why the HELL did I ever try any other distro?

I'm using both, gentoo and Arch.. tested Debian and Ubuntu for a long time, even stuff like Suse, Fedora and so on. The only two distros which can satisfy my needs are gentoo (compiling sucks a bit.. but aggressive cflags are a lot of fun) and arch (yeah, really bleeding edge software without compiling!).
