Just in case anyone likes FreeBSD. I find it to be way more useful as a server than a desktop for me, though... >_>. Usually things are to be expected: Security fixes, new features, upgraded programs, etc.

I was installing it in VMware last night to test it out. I'll continue it when I get home from school.

And in other news: I noticed that I never used FreeBSD 5.3 (which I did burn to disc, though ), so this may be bigger for me than some other people, who already use 5.3.

My friend uses a FreeBSD for his server... Anyways, I haven't played around with non-Microsoft OSes so maybe I'll play around with this if I ever find the time

FreeBSD is... well. I hadn't tried it and probably woudln't until I get my grades set.

It's one of thoose OS's I should try whenever I have the time. I probably run it in VMware thought... I don't have any spare computer I want to test it on and I never used any BSD system before.

Well, tried installing it in VMware. That failed. I'll try to do it on real hardware a bit later (requires me to resize partitions... meh).

Darth: Asking weather you should use KDE or GNOME (or any other desktop/window manager) does not have a definite answer. I'd just recommend to install both, try both, and decide which you like better.
