So then the statement "makes Gentoo Linux a questionable choice for production server environments" no longer applies?

Indiana University has been deploying Gentoo Linux heavily in production environments.


We are using Gentoo in a production server environment but recently management has been asking questions mostly because Gartner only recommends SuSE or Redhat Enterprise Linux.

This is because RedHat/SuSE give a corporation where blame can be placed when something goes wrong. This was to solve the original argument of "There's nobody to call when it breaks.." that has kept a lot of companies from switching to Linux. However I think the recent pricing model and company changes will make people re-think a lot of their support needs.
