1 With the basic install of gentoo 2.6.12-r9 behind me (forget splash - it's
2 not worth the headaches right now, and I need more research to find a good
3 backup solution), I read through the gentoo security doc. There's a world
4 of stuff here!
5 I have a laptop that I'm intending to use for web development (the geek
6 side) and also for business tasks (the end user side).
7 I'm wondering how much / how little of the security measures mentioned in
8 the gentoo security doc I really need?
9 Or, should I move on to the desktop environment first, and then come back
10 and tighten down the system?

12 Thanks for the input - as always, greatly appreciated.
