Top Five Geek-Style Distros Mar 9, 2009, 02 :02 UTC (1 Talkback[s]) (6054 reads)
"2. Arch Linux--possibly the most optimized binary distribution available. Similar to Slackware in structure, but simpler than Slackware in what it comes with--not a whole lot. This is not simple as in newbie simple, it is simple in terms of containing only the basics; you add what you want and put together config files yourself.
"5. Sabayon--a Gentoo offshoot that makes initial entry into the source based distro space a bit easier initially. I've not worked with this one much and I've heard mixed reports. Advocates say that it is easy to install initially, is fast, and has the same advantages as Gentoo. Detractors complain about quality issues, some of the same complaints that I've heard with Gentoo."
