OK, I think I can add something to this little chain mail as I use both Debian and Gentoo.
Why do I do that? Well, Debian is great and all and I use it on servers etc, but on my workstation I want alot more control that Debian can, or probably ever can, give me. As an example, I don't want or use KDE so I do not want KDE libs installed just because some package maintainer decided to enable the KDE support option on app xyz. With Debian I have not choice with Gentoo I do, I disable KDE support using the USE variable. Very easy to do. Performance enhancements, well I seen a few, but nothing to shout about, it more about getting a higher degree of control over my workstation. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
