[GLLUG] Re: Gentoo

[Charles Tower]

It gives your computer something to do (compile) while nobody is 
actually using it.  It also consumes a lot of that pesky free time you 
have, yourself.  The speed increase you get from a custom-compiled OS 
and applications makes up for a good portion of the time you spend 
tweaking your system.  But, best of all, Gentoo makes for memorable 
conversations at any party.  (In all fairness, that last statement is 
equally valid for all Linux distros and BSDs.)
