Does not display properly in konqueror - if we're going to keep the browser installed default in Sabayon we should probably make sure it displays our site properly. Also, I know it's a small point but I'd make the three menu links significantly bigger - they could be overlooked atm.

agreed, just figured I'd add to your final todo ;) just so it doesn't get forgotten, not any matter of a deal-breaker at all. A simple workaround I just noticed is if you set the text to resize everything jumps properly into position.

Firstly, thanks for all the hard work. However I'm sorry to say that I'm not too keen on the new home page. The text is too small and it will be more confusing to for a newcomer in my opinion.
Also, when I clicked on the What's all this? link the pop-up was partially obscured by the YouTube video frame (I'm using Firefox 3.0.2.) so I could not read it properly. (Minor point, but the 'See results' link for the poll still appears when the results are being displayed.)

Forgot to say that the new look of SL 4.0 Beta1 in those screen shots is gorgeous. You've gone back to a darker theme and it looks really nice, and very slick. SL is a 'designer distro'! I'm looking forward even more now to trying out 4.0.

the old portal was easier to get to grips with, easier on the eye (and had a more plastic polish).
handy tool. http://www.feng-gui.com/
but it does look "cool".

This is a sweet websire for a sweet distribution. Great job on this and I'm looking very much forward to the release of 4.0. Sabayon is an incredible distro and in my opinion only getting better. I consider it the NEW Gentoo... much better, much easier, easier to set-up and work with. I have never been disappointed by Sabayon and consistently can say WOW!!!!!

Esta es mi primera vez con Sabayon. Ya lo había oido hablar antes. Solo he usado SuSe y Ubuntu, y me gustaría probar este distro de Linux al igual que pobrar Fedora. Así que iniciaré y luego les comentaré como me a parecido a mi que soy nuevo en este distro. Saludos.

I love Sabayon 4. It's too bad that there are so many adds placed on the homepage. Still, this is my favorite Linux distro so far.

I used 3.5 previously and while there are good things about 4.0 I would never recommend it to anyone. Package management is not only slow it's mostly (the gui spritz) useless. I can use emerge at cli but so many packages are masked that I just find gentoo/sabayon extremely tedious.
Having tried sabayon before and still finding it very difficult to install extra packages with I'm quite sure I won't be back-sorry but that's how it is for me.

Design is "pretty", but _very_ noizy. It's hard to navigate thru contrast mess of micro-text and colourful ads/logos/design elements. Useful information is not easy to get to, also. What is Sabayon? How it' different from other distributions? Why there's no clean description on the front page?

Got an easy way to setup wireless networking? Man! This thing is a pain! I wish Sabayon would be laptop friendly like PCLOS. The available codecs in that OS make it easy to get wireless going, without getting angina and frustration trying to get wireless working in Sabayon Linux.

I just downloaded Sabayon 5.0. I wanted to say how awesome it is. You guys have integrated Creative X-Fi drivers into it and my dynex network card now works with no issues. With every release I can tell that your definite goal is to have the state of the art. This OS destroys Windows by a long shot and as far as I'm concerned Microsoft can't and will never be able to compare. Ease of use, works OOTB, and has everything needed for a user to start out. Keep up the amazing work. I look forward to future releases of this operating system.
