Anyone tried Sabayon Linux yet? Their website is slow to load for me, guess it's pretty busy.

Go and have a look in the Gentoo forum, http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=166

I've been using it for some time now and it is my distro of choice.

It's Gentoo-based with portage, so it takes a lot longer to install things. I don't know whether it matters, but it's also KDE based.

To me it was a lot less snappy. The benefits of building everything from source wasn't worth the amount of time I had to wait for things to be installed.

But to each his own.
