Also again thanks to Wux and Rust Collector for reminding me Arch has a rep of breaking here and there. So have to tar a dang backup to a recovery partition before I install much more onto the thing. So if/when it breaks don't have to go through nearly as much butt pains to get it back in a (somewhat)usable state more quickly, if have to resort to that. Arghhhh !
Hmmmm ... perhaps I like buttpain and time dumps but never really gave Arch a chance, didn't use the AUR. Says packages for the distro are optimized for i686 and x86_64. So guess will just have to chock it up to curiousity. Since as pointed out Gentoo seems to be way too much time intensive to bother screwing with. Screwing with Arch won out by having next best time dump status. :D
Fairly well convinced no distro will ever be able to pry me away from Debian anyway.
UDOD! = Use Debian or Die !!! :P
Edit again ... @Rhow, consider meself to be in a perpetual state of gnu/Linux noobness fellow nixer. Wish I could find a decent paying job that let me do nothing but sit n screw with gnu/Linux all day. Thinking someone could probably spend the rest of their friggin life doing so and would only scratch the dang surface of all the stuff possible to fiddle with. Though I keep checking the help wants diligently, haven't yet come across any such job openings DAMMIT ! Still hopeful though. ;)
