Hi,

I tihnk we are slightly off topic, but...

FreeBSD is*substantially*  harder to get working than Linux. The other
BSDs are harder than FreeBSD.

I dissent this, I have installed various systems and on a standard configuration, especially if you can jsut partition one single disk, I found all three major BSDs easy to install like Linux.

The installer is nicely text based, but it is easy and leaves you a working system. Especially OpenBSD is extremely easy to maintain. It has an excellent way to update your packages every 6 months, seamless upgrades.

Granted,I upgraded my FreeBSD workstation and X now doesn't work.. but on my laptop freezes due to X drivers now and then too, so I'd call that a tie!
