I've been distro hopping for since I have introduced myself to linux (2-3 years I think). Tried Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Suse, Mint, Arch, and a few random distros I found on distrowatch.

Finally settled for Arch (with KDE) and using it for 3-4 months now. I love it. It has forced me to learn a lot about linux. And now I realise other distros were too bloated and have a lot of packages I probably would never use.

That being said, I haven't tried Gentoo yet. Hmm. Someday maybe :P
