Gentoo isn't intended for beginners, and makes no claims about "user friendliness" of which I'm aware. Generally speaking, making things "user friendly" entails adding more layers of abstraction. It's nice for those who don't want to study to learn how to use their computer, but it's not going to give the best performance. Security is also frequently impacted to some degree. Were it otherwise, there might be fewer "geeky" distros and more "easy" ones. :) There's nothig wrong with using Ubuntu though - I tend to recommend Linux Mint over Ubuntu for eginner or non-technical users. Opensuse is just a mess everytime I try it (admittedly, more than a year has passed so maybe it's killer now). Good luck and enjoy your adventures in OSes. :) -- caveat utilitor ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤
