Nolan,
I have gentoo on my laptop (and two other desktops) and I love it. Installing it can not be deemed easy but you
end up with exactly what you want. I recently got to compare footprint and package versions with my friend's
fedora and gentoo is ahead. In the past I tried Mandrake (cluttered), Fedora (up2date sucks) and Novell linux
desktop (lack of support for drivers). Gentoo was the way to go for me.
If you need any particular help with installing gentoo feel free to email me.

I just got a new computer and I am thinking about a linux install. I have seen several discussions on Debian and Gentoo from the group. Are there any advantages or disadvantages between the two (Unicon Related, Just Programming In General)? What about Fedora?
Gentoo is good if you want to rebuild Unicon from sources frequently, because downloading sources and building from them is the usual way in which Gentoo packages are installed.
Once you have Unicon installed, all the usual Linuxen are pretty much the same.
