There are multiple choices for a "kitchen". There are only 2 choices for a kitchen environment. The two primary contenders for kitchen environment are Bepe's buildos, and PPCKitchen's buildos (they're cousins). They both get the job done, but PPCKitchen's is easier to use and prettier (not to mention it comes with updater). Both versions "build" at essentially the same speed, (they are primarily limited by disk speed), with the nod going to Bepe's buildos (it does less). If you've never flashed before, you should use PPCKitchen's kitchen environment.

You should not build PPCKitchen kitchens or OEMs using Bepe's buildos as of 6/25/2008. Many oems will work; some oems and all new kitchens will not.

As to "kitchens", there are a bunch. PPCKitchen only makes stock kitchens (kitchens made from carrier provided rom images with as few changes as necessary). Dogguy's kitchen maker tries to turn a custom ROM into a kitchen (with varying degrees of success). Everyone else that makes a kitchen primarily does so to allow people to make the author's ROM with additional OEMs.

yeah im new to the flashing scene and didn't know if there were similar alternatives to buildOS...

right now im running 20270 from buildOS and love it. my only question is speed. i keep hearing dcds roms are alot faster... while the 20270 is not bad, ive noticed that it does have a serious ram leak. at the moment i have memmaid running to keep up with the ram.

apparently htc didn't think about ram when crafting the titan...

thanks again for your response.
