  11. Re:Come to Gentoo :) on Netcraft: Red Hat Still Top Linux Server Distro · · Score: 3, Informative

    To each his own flavour. There's the time component and I have to agree with you on that one. But if one has extra time for playing/tweaking, it pays off grealy. It's also good as a general distribution if you start from stage3, then it goes fast. And you can also install binaries. OS for everyone practically.

    Gentoo, 6-month Growth Rate, 49.5%.
    Seems like we have the biggest growth rate...
    C'mon geeks, show some backbone, come to Gentoo, our precious...:)

    And it isn't even hard to install. When I was starting linux for the first time, without no previous experience, 1 year ago, following the manual up to the last slash*, it took me only 1 reformating and 2 days total. Nowdays, it's less than 24 hours on my P4, for the critical stuff, once KDE is up, the rest can follow safely. *Literary, the manual had a section where they didn't had an extra slash and that screwed me for half an hour:)

    So what if you do sign that, you do go to the next job, and you do the same type of job for a more popular company. and the previous suckers decide to sue the heck out of you just to extarct a huge settlement from the bigger company?

    Microsoft acknowledged yesterday that Chavet is a Microsoft employee but declined to name the team on which he works.
    Too Obvious

    However, three other people with knowledge of Chavet's Microsoft employment confirmed that he has been working on the MSN Search effort
    Too unconfirmed

    But, if the guy is such an expert inthe search field, isn't it posible that source code was his? How would that impact everything from a legal point?
