Gentoo Fans utb RE: Red Hat and product lifespan

I have been messing with different distros and would like to try Gentoo, as I 
think it might help me learn better.  I was wondering what speeds of machines 
you all compile (and run if compile on other machine) it on; cpu and mem size 
vs time.  I have 3 reasonably fast machines and 4 or 5 slow ones.  Eventually I 
would like Linux with an encrypted filesystem on my laptop/desknote as I need 
to worry about data security with a possible job.  Linux has been serving me 
well this past year, but I am really unhappy with how slow I feel I am 
learning, not enough time in the day with multiple jobs and 7 day a week work 
schedule.  That's why you see me virtually instead of at the meetings!

Thanks all
Randal
