I started using Gentoo back in version 1.4 when there were far more update glitches. today they system is far more stable to upgrading and the documentation has grown in leaps bounds. The user base has always been friendly and helpful, unlike other forums on the net. Newer utilities and updates to the portage system make troubleshooting and updating far less painless. errors in emerge are far more informative. I took off some points for usability do to the complex nature of Gentoo and security because Gentoo does not include any default firewalls or acls but again is the nature of Gentoo.
