After seeing your screenie I’m going to have to fire up my VM and run it through Ubuntu.

It looks REAAAALLLLY nice.

I’d really recommend giving KDE a try with a Linux distro rather than FreeBSD. While KDE 4 is still in beta, the FreeBSD port is much more bug ridden. It isn’t necessarily any less stable but there are a number of features that don’t exactly work in FreeBSD. Having said that, though, I’m tempted to switch my Gentoo file server back to FreeBSD for many of the reasons I’ve mentioned in previous posts; FreeBSD is a much better server platform.

Very nice review and well done.

I may have to fire up my old VM of FreeBSD one day and maybe have a peak. ;)
