Ever tried DesktopBSD (www.desktopbsd.org) or PcBSD (www.pcbsd.org)?
Unless the Linux-distros provides you with a geek that does the
installation for you, I can possible see how they could be easier to
setup.
Yes, you talk about FreeBSD, but after all both DesktopBSD and PcBSD
are basically just preconfigured and pre-packaged versions of FreeBSD.

For anyone looking for a BSD-based desktop OS, I highly recommend
the two mentioned above. I was surprised to see how extremely
userfriendly they were despite being relatively new projects.
