Gentoo: Linux for Men!

| Windows is an operating system for babies. It does things for you and does 
| them spontaneously. Frequently, it breaks things because it tries too hard to 
| be helpful. Ubuntu is a Linux distribution for normal people. The developers 
| do a really good job making sure that everything works “out the box” and “on 
| the first click”. They do this rather well and, if it does work first time, 
| it continues to work, practically forever. Unfortunately, it’s a little 
| difficult to hack when it doesn’t work at all!
