You wern't asking me.. But hey, I'll answer.. I'll be getting my M10000N board 
sometime this week (tues/wed), and will attempt to install Gentoo from a 
stage one tarbal :D Then even libc will be setup with optimizations.. Should 
only take a day, maybe a day and a half, unless the via board at 1g is that 
much slower than my Tbird @ 900... I hope not.. But Even if its a bit slower, 
my 900 was capable of DVD playback, so it should be good enough.
