That last bit is not true. While yes, Chrome OS and Core OS had a Gentoo base, a lot was done of top of that. Furthermore, most of Google's products (both shipped devices and services) are _not_ based on Gentoo and never were. The base of Google's production server OS is another Linux distribution, and there, too, a lot of what makes the thing tick has no outside equivalent.
