As the general dissatisfaction with systemd grows, people are exploring options which more and more include the BSDs, especially FreeBSD. Having a polished desktop is possible from stock FreeBSD but takes quite a bit of time and work. PC-BSD covers much of that ground by adding to a plain vanilla FreeBSD and configuring it for desktop use. iTWire has an interview with Kris Moore of PC-BSD about the project.
And for those of you who have already given a BSD a try, what did you like/dislike about it? Were you able to get up and running in a reasonably short timeframe - or did you find that the differences ruined your productivity? Did you have any hardware compatibility problems?
