Highlights of Sabayon 7 LXDE, E17 and Awesome:

· Linux kernel 3.1; · EXT4 as the default filesystems; · Support for encrypted filesystems (LUKS); · Support for Btrfs filesystems; · Fast installation process (guaranteed to take less than 5 minutes); · Ready for Portage and Entropy (allows access to lots of installable apps); · Easily customizable system (with the help of Entropy); · Much more lightweight because GCC is provided by sys-devel/gcc.
