Bring it on.

Ive probably been using Linux longer than anybody here and despite having
used RH, Debian and various other flavors for years, Ive finally settled
on Gentoo. That must mean something... besides, Im tired of dealing with
RPM hell and waiting YEARS for Debian updates (source updates are much
faster - I have my own local portage that all my machines sync to and a
script that builds "binary" packages during the night so updates take 5
mins).

I would find unattended "clone" installs very useful for rolling out
servers - something like Kickstart from RH (I believe this is in the
works anyway). I would find user-defined package sets (GLEP 21) even more
useful...
