Gentoo users are not the "target audience" for most consumer ISPs. |

If 1% avoid the ISP due to no IPV6, no problem. Techy users tend to |
| 9 |
run servers, and many consumer ISPs consider it a bonus that those |
| 10 |
customers avoid them. My ISP has IPV6 available on VDSL, but I'm not a |
| 11 |
gamer and don't run servers, so there's no benefit to me for the extra |
| 12 |
hassle on my part. I'm in my late 60's. I figure that IPV4 will |
| 13 |
probably last longer than I will. |
