I agree, but I wouldn't find it useful anymore. I find the Linux kernel |
| 2 |
useful for many of the things that run on it alone (usually non-free |
| 3 |
software). Otherwise I would prolly use a BSD (I prefer the dev model) ;). |

Gentoo needs Linux otherwise 3 people will use it. Linux is why people |
| 6 |
use it. |

|

Even a BSD kernel would not be as usefull (except in certain performance |
| 9 |
criteria). |

All of these may be additions and choices, I guess. Be Gentoo's strength |
| 12 |
is Linux more than portage. To me (and probably me alone ;). |
