- DC++ client
- DC++ server (hub)
- Apache w/PHP
- Some NES, SNES, GEN etc Emulators (for us Linux Only xbox users)
- Extra KDE Themes
- PHPsys Script to run in apache
- update to newer version of GAIM
- Firewall / Router / DNS / Domain Setup (IPCop (sf) bastion-firewall (sf))
- AIMsniff
- IRC Server
- webforum perhaps phpBB
- AWStats (sf)
- Inkscape (sf)
- SNARE (sf)
- DooM Legacy (sf) fun game.
- Ultimate Stunts (sf) another good game.
- XAMPP (sf) very useful ALL-IN-ONE for Apache and others +web control
- BTManager (sf) bit torrent GUI
- stratagus (sf) like C&C game
- GlobeCom Jukebox (sf) nice proggy
- Tux Typing (sf) lol tune up your typing skillz :-P
- LGames (sf) nice group of games
- LinuxStat (sf)

(sf)=sourceforge

just some ideas, more the better right :-P
you compiling into the OS will save nubs alot of time trying to install and config themselves.

All those progs are pretty general and most user could/would use most of them.

packages that aren't available through portage are unlikely to make it into gentoox
If you keep an open mind, will your brain fall out?

Xampp it a usefull little compilation but I think setting up apache, php, mysql and ftp through portage is more consistant.

Sorry.. but a lot of those either advocate piracy.. or are not "General use". Also... games... I dont really think people use Gentoox for gaming.
