So let me get this straight...

MIUI is a 100% AOSP based custom built version of Android made by fans for fans?

If it is WOW...CM still has a special place in my heart but what MIUI did with the same code is simply amazing.

Basically yes. But they've collaborated with CM, and now they basically share some ideas and everything... And if you want some of the cool CM stuff like fast GPU drivers just download that kernel... vorkkernel was it called I think?

For super crazy GPU drivers wait for them to come to CM
