You go to the dealer and pick one out and you get what it comes with and if you want more you'll have to pay extra and wait.
Gentoo = Kit Car
You buy all the pieces and then put them all together. Some pieces are missing and others don't fit. After 7 years you've more or less got what looks like a car and drives but there's always something that doesn't quite fit so you have to fix it.
Debian = Chevrolet
You go the dealer and pick out the model then you start picking out all you other options like color, engine, accessories

You more or less get all the newest stuff but it's not really yours. You have to give it back when your lease if up but you do usually have the option to buy it and own it.
Damn Small Linux, Puppy Linux = Mini Cooper
Exotic and small and does what you need it to do but don't expect to win too many street races with it.
