From what I can tell in my quick scanning of the topic titles in this thread, most people who have tried out a BSD have been working with FreeBSD. If you are looking for a really easy way to use a BSD, and specifically FreeBSD as your desktop OS, take a look at the PC BSD and Desktop BSD projects. B ...

This isn't a full-fledged review (hence the title isn't "My Experience with..."), since I wasn't able to completely run this OS through its paces. I just had an interesting first impression and thought I'd share it, for what it's worth.I ran across PC-BSD yesterday on DistroWatch, and sinc ...

I've been using Ubuntu for a while now and want to start looking at non-Ubuntu based OS's. I really got looking at -BSD based OS's and have come across PC and Open.

Wow... I just installed this today, and while I haven't had a lot of time to play with it, I've got to say, it is a swank little OS. Much like Ubuntu, PC-BSD just WORKS. I've had troubles installing *BSD in the past, and I'm a fairly experienced computer user. This went through very easily.Granted, ...
