Disappointed with gentoo

[violentgreen]

I just want to put my voice out and say that I am very disappointed with gentoo. The main reason that I paid for the cd set is because I do not have a broadband connection and don't have the time to download individual packages with portage when emerging. Openoffice will not run after emerging and while I have tried the methods I have found on this board I still have had no luck. That was a major reason for trying gentoo, to have a fully optomized OS and office suit. On top of that, I cannot seem emerge xfree-drm without a network connection. It seems that should be an integral part of any distro.

A lot of people seem really happy with gentoo. I am not.
