New to the Sabayon Experience, caught a glimpse of it on a Live CD and I think it is gorgeous, seems easy to navigate, but it is totally new to me as I am a Prisoner to Microsoft Windows.

Looking for any advice to make my Laptop kick a** using this form of Linux. and to have a crash course in operating with it as a daily form of GUI OS.

That's good
For the audio, try opening a terminal and typing

Code: Select all

su

press enter and then enter your root password and press enter again. Then type in

Code: Select all

alsaconf

press enter and follow the instructions. Best of luck,

And after you have done that, run alsamixer in a Konsole/Terminal window, press the F6 key to select your sound card and make sure nothing is muted ('M' key toggles mute/unmute) and the sliders are set to reasonable levels. Press the Tab key to view all the pages in the AlsaMixer window.
