Bollocks. Their speedy growth could just as easily (in fact, it's far more
likely) through hype and being "ther cool new thing". Yeah, they've got
some interesting ideas, but honestly I think knoppix has more long-term
oomph than Gentoo for the average user (and I'm including admin-type users
in that, not just the Windows-convert class of "average user").
