Without broadband, the only real viable installation option (at least as far as I remember from when I investigated it) is to install from stage 3 which basically makes it very similar to Slackware. I'd only install Gentoo if I was going to install from stage 1 - or maybe 2. Otherwise it wouldn't be worth switching from Slack.
Also, re: your post about installing the updates on seperate PCs on your LAN, have you considered SUS?
