I thought about trying this one out, seeing as how they were so kind to
support my NIC in this release, but I've got Slack and FreeBSD taking
up all the space on my disk, and I really don't want to drop either of
them. Maybe I'll dig up my USB HD and give it a shot.
In my case, I used NetBSD for my laptop, a PIII 850 w/512 MB RAM. It
performed quite awesomely, as did Gentoo. FreeBSD performs extremely
well, but it seems to have some heft to it. Hence, I prefer to use
FreeBSD on newer NW. Something like Gentoo, Slack, or Debian on older
HW, and perhaps NetBSD or OpenBSD. I've got a Sun UltraSparc II with
limited disk space. OpenBSD ran very well on it. Probably NetBSD would
be better. NetBSD seems to be suited to those types of machines.
