Folks might want to qualify the term "ease of administration," because
this term depends more than somewhat upon the person using it.  I chose
Gentoo for what I perceive to be its ease of administration.  That is,
no funky GUI administration tools.  I much prefer doing system
administration at the command line with vim being my preferred
administration tool.

Cheers,
Dennis
