You really run Gentoo on a server?

When some people say 'server', they mean a mission-critical machine that does important stuff and needs to be secure, stable, and managed according to security protocols. Other people use it to refer to a fairly generic machine that they store their files and play with apache on. Both are valid definitions, but Gentoo only makes any kind of sense on one of them. :)
