EXACTLY my point. I use a mix of Debian and Gentoo. Each has their place.
All I did personally was answer the question that was asked "Why Gentoo?"
I didn't say that gentoo was the only distro to have those features, just that
it did.
I use debian ( Kubuntu ) on my laptop. Love it.
I use Gentoo on my desktop - AthlonXP 2800 - as for perfomance increase....
Openoffice 1.1.4 ( compiled, not binary ) starts in 6 seconds, as an example.
I didnt install Gentoo on my desktop for the performance increase. I did it
for the package availability, and maintenance.
To each his/her own :)
