A while back I made the switch to Red Hat Linux from Gentoo. At the time I need to do a reinstall and Gentoo was difficult to install across a modem connected to the local machine (I still only have modem access, but that's another story).
It ran fine, and the blucurve theme made KDE and Gnome apps look the same, if not good. Updates where horrible, even using yum. Installing RPMs directly made dependencies a complete pain in the ass. So afer going through the Red Hat Linux to Fedora update and then attempting to switch 2.6 I decided that Fedora was to painful to deal with and a distro switch was in order.
I've been back running Gentoo for a couple of weeks now, it rocks! The distro is really making progress and the ability to combine stable and unstable packages is great. No I just have to figure out why I ever left. I really should have put more effort into staying in the first place :S. But eh, some days I'm just fickle
