I think what we can get from this is that 

Only ONE count it 1. Test was run and I think it was run 1 time.

It really is the worst type of crap journalism.

Subject: [SLUG] Benefits of source distro (Gentoo) somewhat elusive :-)

Hi all,

Though people might find this interesting.

Intial testing comparing a source distro (Gentoo) with binary distros
(Debian and Mandrake) shows that Gentoo offers no speed advantages
even though it is compiled for the exact machine type it is going
to run on.

Makes Debain (and Mandrake) look really god for the lack of messing
about required of Gentoo.

Traditional capital was stuck in a company's bank account or
investments. 
It could not walk away in disgust. Human capital has free will. It can 
walk out the door; traditional capital cannot.
