Gentoo brings pretty much everything, whatever you want it to have (as
long as it is in Portage, Gentoo's package managing system).

SuSE was the first one I really used (if you do not count my
eventually aborted attempt to get Debian to behave). I had no problems
with it per se, but like with most other distributions, it got old
with time.

Doesn't pretty much everything these days (with it only being a
download away anyway if not)?

I have never used Slackware, but I know Gentoo is supposed to be much
like the BSDs. Its package system is even called Portage (from BSD's
ports). You type one command, and bam, any package in Portage is
downloaded, compiled, and installed. And extremely rare will be the
package you want to install that is not there.
