Your beautiful base system ready for most Internet-related tasks does 
not have a:

- GUI
- browser
- media player
- email client
- IRC client
- office suite

I'm wondering what you consider "most" internet tasks.  If I want a 
basic internet desktop, I need to install a couple hundred ports to 
achieve that.

If I want a server that follows best practices, I have to install 
openssl from ports, which means I *can't* use the in-base sendmail even 
if I wanted to.
