Yes, Gentoo is for people who want to manage their own box,
make their own choices & learn from their own mistakes.

I installed Gentoo on my machine 031007 & haven't re-installed since:
I check once a week for packages to update (avoid 'emerge world')
& decide how close to the cut/bleeding edges I want to be.
I plan to build a new machine later this year & install Gentoo there too.

Once you get used to it, you'll probably like Gentoo: most people do.
Those who leave usually are very busy in their lives
& simply don't have the time to keep it upto-date.
