FreeBSD as a desktop OS

kompasmedia.nl — Saying that FreeBSD is an excellent choice to build a server upon would be stating the blatantly obvious. Sadly though, FreeBSD as a desktop OS is a much less common sight. This is a shame, particularly for developers who could have a desktop that closely mimics the configuration and behavior of FreeBSD servers in a remote datacenter.
