FreeBSD is solid and most people who use it in my experience needs it for web-servers and the kind. I do not recall anyone who uses it as a personal workstation like me. I like trying new applications and throwing them out as soon as I think I know what they do and it they do not satisfy my needs - Yep.
If I wanted to learn about the UNIX I probably use FreeBSD, but now I want to have apps that do some work and that I can experiment with. /-------------------------------------------------------------------/ Daniel J.
