Thank you for you opinion.=20
The competition in open source world is much harder than with
commercial software. 3 commercial systems share 96% of the users.
1,6% of the users are shared by 296 Linux distros
You may think that you're outside this rules but the competition is natural=
=20
on the planet and Gentoo is certainly competing weather you want it or not.
Competition was long before a human foot stood on the ground for the first=
=20
time :-) And suddenly there is no competition in Linux world - do you reall=
y=20
belive in it?
--=20
