But port tree is very large. I only update the followings.
ports-base
ports-archivers
ports-audio
ports-devel
ports-dns
ports-editors
ports-emulators
ports-ftp
ports-graphics
ports-lang
ports-mail
ports-misc
ports-net
ports-security
ports-sysutils
ports-www
I reinstall only some ports, which I considerd important.

They will tend to FreeBSD some day, much better.
IMHO, the best OS is FreeBSD. The best OS with GUI is OS-X.
Both are BSDs.

I don't want to. Even now I have 2 OSes installed, I still hate it.
In fact, 90% I boot of FreeBSD (at home).
