1 Hey Alti,
2 Welcome to the club!!!

4 I love to listen to music for the emotions and the embiance it creates.
5 I am aware of which music styles I like and why.
6 Its also possible to enjoy music for the technical aspects, DVD audio,
7 or SACD, electrostatic speakers, or high end head phones.

9 Anyway, Gentoo is maybe more for people who want to play around with
10 bits and think that -funroll-loops is an advantage for them.
11
12 One of the advantages of Gentoo, which I think is important for me, is
13 that the Gentoo team is committed to offer the latest improvements in
14 software.
15 It is even not hard to keep your system up to date.
16
17 We are able to use Gnome-2.2, where Debian is still at a safer Gnome-1.4.
18 And it is up to you to explore your needs and to find the distribution
19 which meets your need.
20 Besides that, the Gentoo users community is very very friendly and helpful.
21
22 So, what are you exactly looking for in a distribution, Alti?
23
24 Enjoy!
