Right. But some WILL NOT read the documentation and they WILL create a=20
crapy system.
And then they WILL run to the forums. And guys like you WILL tell them=20
to RTFM.
And they will tell their friends what a crapy system Gentoo is and what=20
jerks these Gentoo users are.

Seriously give them a nice default system and tell them later in a nicer=20
