Brilliant and very useful for FreeBSD, IMHO

Never said anything about changing the GUI, but it does need some work, its
hard for normal users to get with it, but I never want to see it become some
kind of X11 GUI, I can pretty much go through /stand/sysinstall in my sleep,
and thats how I want it to stay.

There needs to be a DesktopBSD though. Just curious as how it would take you
a day to get acquainted with the UI of /stand/sysinstall, its pretty
straight forward IMHO.

PLEASE don't give FreeBSD a GUI for installation and system configuration.
If the users want it, make another distribution.

What I like best in FreeBSD is its user interface. I just love it. Upgrading
the system and installing software from source is so easy (I'm just a
newbie). Sysinstall is really well-designed. It took me less than a day to
get acquainted with the user interface. Please don't change it.

Regards,
Daniela
