FreeBSD is great, just take some time to explore it and its possibilities.

You might want to take a look at DesktopBSD, too.
DesktopBSD is based on FreeBSD, but is geared towards Desktop users.
The installer is different and you'll find many applications needed
for everydays work preinstalled.
You'll find information about DesktopBSD on http://www.desktopbsd.org
