PC-BSD 7.1 Galileo - Review 

,----[ Quote ]
| PC-BSD behaved nicely, even on the slim 512MB RAM, which was a bit sparse for 
| the KDE 4.2 environment. Nevertheless, it was stable and robust, the hallmark 
| of the BSD family. Furthermore, the collection of programs was good and 
| well-balanced overall, with NTFS and multimedia support out of the box.

Adventures with Desktop Ready Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| FreeBSD is definitely ready for my "desktop" (technically, my laptop, I 
| guess). If it isn't, it's just the closest thing to being ready for it that 
| exists right now, as far as I'm aware. No Linux distribution I've encountered 
| measures up. As far as how most people mean "desktop ready", though, FreeBSD 
| isn't up to the standards of the "desktop" oriented Linux distributions, MS 
| Windows, and MacOS X. That's pretty sad, considering how easy it would be to 
| get it there, with a little help from hardware vendors that already support 
| Linux-based OSes.

PC-BSD 7.1 Galileo Edition Review

,----[ Quote ]
| I love FreeBSD and I tried really hard to like PC-BSD but I'm sorry to say
| that I don't. I like the concept of the BSD desktop but I feel its still a
| few years behind the Linux desktop in hardware support and you're likely
| going to have more luck there.
