Ever heard of "dll hell"? Dynamic Link Library. Shared files! Ever worked on Windows?
Yes Joseph, Gentoo it is for me. The same holds true for "rpm hell" too. I've certainly enjoyed Ubuntu on my laptop. It holds back packages that aren't ready for primetime without holding them all the way back to plain ol' Debian. Package managers of any sort can make it a little awkward when you're wanting to try something new/non-free/unpackaged/etc.. which is where binary capability would be great. Opera was the perfect example mentioned. BTW, how's the schwag? I've been working too much lately to make it to meetings.
