Perhaps you have not visited sites like:

http://www.freebsddairy.org/
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/

I'm surfing the net on my HP Omnibook 6000 running FreeBSD + ESS Maestro3
+ KDE 2.1.1 + a wireless PCMCIA card and yes, JDK 1.3 hotspot for Linux
under emulation. Does that count as a life ? I do open source for fun,
