Hi there. Just asking for the heck of it, which of the two Arch distros would you guys use? Arch with GNOME Shell and GDM, or the Arch-based Manjaro GNOME? On one side of the coin, Arch is set up to your exact specs and always has the newest stuff, meanwhile on the other side, although Manjaro is easier to set up and use, it uses its own repos instead of the Arch repos, which ticks a lot of Arch people off, and it's not as up-to-date as Arch is.
 
Of course both are pretty nice distros, actually, but I prefer Arch, and if not that for whatever reason, Archbang, since it's literally just an easier-to-install, pre-configured Arch, as it uses the Arch repos, but just curious which of you would set up an Arch install with GNOME and which of you would just go for the GNOME spin of Manjaro.
