new life with old hardware

Well, just in case you might have been hesitant about putting gentoo on older hardware, I have your solution. Make sure you are using the same version of gcc on both machines, and use distcc to speed up compile times. I am using distcc with my old IBM Netfinity Dual P2-300 box and now compiles don't take forever. Kernel compile use to waste over an hour almost two (all modules built and everything) now it is quite a bit faster once I threw my Athlon XP 2500+ into the mix.

The beauty with distcc is that you can easy configure it to run on multiple machines. No more slow compiles for me.

Very nice. I'd really like to see this as a topic for some mtg.
