^^ Are you single?

If yes, I'd like to take you out for lunch over a discussion of how demand paging in Linux is actually better than Solaris.

Yeah, gentoo's a bit out of the question in terms of an install, we don't want to be there all night.

Actually, you're wrong about the all night thing. There's plenty of time to do a minimal Gentoo install. Then you can install packages when you get home. We already have someone planning to do exactly that.

Do you have anyone to assist with BSD?

^ Yeah, I'm pretty sure we've got at least one old hand at BSD.

^^ As I said, we've got one stage 3 gentoo install planned already. As for slackware, we can do it easily enough if you're interested (and show up).
