View Single Post - Linux as a Windows alternative

I have used Suse, FC2-3, Mandriva, and some Gentoo in school so I am not a total n00b.

Gentoo seemed the coolest yet the hardest to install/configure. I was thinking of doing a dual boot with gentoo/winxp awhile ago but never got around to it. I would like to just add Gentoo to my existing Winxp partition. I will have to do some google-ing for adding gentoo to xp as well as setting up wireless network with a wep...that was a problem I had the last time I tried gentoo, I could never get the wireless config to get the dhcp address correctly on bootup. I also didnt have much patience for it either and never REALLY tried it enough.

If anyone have some good gentoo links or howto's for wireless networking or windows apps on linux I'd appriciate it.

thanks
