It’s not really Gentoo as a lot of people say but more of a pre-configured Gentoo. It’s easier to install and provides pre-built binaries and initial setup. It also comes with pre-installed media codecs, drivers and games. I think it’s main purpose was to create a simpler and more user-friendly version of Gentoo because it was created by users form other Linux distributions. It’s different from most other distributions as it’s completely independent from commercial interests. 5
