Not starting religious wars - it really depends. 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.
