hi list,
for my birthday present to myself (shameless birthday plug), I've
decided to install and play with arch. anyone have any good resources
for making arch suitable for audio work? I've seen their wiki page on
the subject, I'm just curious if there is more out there.
thanks!

I actually use Arch but don't use Arch Audio =). I install the necessary
packages myself, AUR is your best friend. Arch Audio and the guys behind
it are great though.
I use the BFS patchset most of the time now, helps with lowering latency
quite a bit on my system similar to -rt, but with much better stability.
Check out kernel26-ice (turn on BFS) or kernel26-rt-ice (same PKGBUILD
different defaults). Obviously the -ice patchset is important to me =)
may not be to you though.
Other than that, just use the wiki and forums, good places to find info.
