Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Redhat sucks, you have to pay them monies, it's dependancy hell, AND  
you have to do things their way - otherwise your system will be shizz.  
Yeah, what are your goals for this system?

On the other hand, Gentoo is very clean and the next best thing to  
FreeBSD. If you look up their history, Gentoo is a Linux deritive of  
freeBSD it has many things in common if you ask me (thanks to Gentoo I  
am now on freeBSD).

Why do you want to dumb down? I don't want to talk down any Linux  
system (EXCEPT RED HAT) but Gentoo is more stable, and the footprint  
is quite small, more manageable, and they don't put out release after  
release. Gentoo is more of a server system but makes a great desktop  
as well.
