Not to belabor the point, but this is precisely why I switched from FreeBSD 
to Mac for my desktop.  For a desktop OS I need something unix-like but 
with good graphics and all the capabilities of flash, movies, etc., etc. 
That can be done on FreeBSD, but it takes some work.

I work on servers.  I don't want to work on my desktop.  All my servers are 
FreeBSD.
