 |  Which BSD to use? I'm interested in trying a BSD to see what they can do, but there are many different ones (such as DesktopBSD, FreeBSD, etc.), so I'm very confused as to which one to go with. So, which is best for someone with Linux experience but no previous BSD use? It will be used mainly for browsing the Web, playing music, and videos.

| Re: Which BSD to use? FreeBSD would be your best choice as most if not all other BSD's are based from that as far as i know.
