I've heard good things about DragonFly, but I've never used it, so I cannot compare it to vanilla FreeBSD. Maybe you can try it for yourself? All I can say is, I'm impressed with this new release of FreeBSD, they did an awesome job with the new scheduler (meaning, this baby is fast!); it is worth a try.

I have no idea, but you may try FreeSBIE, a FreeBSD on a Live-CD.

Create a standard-supfile with the following content:
(I like to put it under/etc). Then you can run the following command:
cvsup -g -L 2/path/to/your/standard-supfile Go make some coffee while your sources are synchronized, then read the Handbook to learn how to build the beast.
FreeBSD 5 is now the stable branch, and 4.x became legacy.
Please enlighten me, how is FreeBSD 5.x flaky?
The ports system works almost perfectly for me (FreeBSD is my main desktop and it is on one of my test servers). Keeping curent is simply a matter of make update && portupgrade -a every morning (I don't even run cvsup manually), with the occasional hiccup that is easily solvable by yourself or with a little help from TFM, freebsd-questions@lists.freebsd.org, or freebsd-ports@lists.freebsd.org.
Indeed... Once I assembled a PC, all well, all good... when I turned it on, it was very quiet. In fact, a little too quiet. I just thought "Fuck!" as I pulled the plug, luckily before the magic smoke left my processor. I had forgotten to connect the processor fan...
You like a tabwidth of 3, some guys prefer 2, some others like 4, and others (like me) like 8... Why limit all those preferences? Any self-respecting editor can set the tab width to whatever you like, so, by using a hard tab, each user can see the indentations as they please, not as the original coder wanted; the programmer uses hard tabs, and everyone is happy.

Apple OSX is not BSD, it is a lot like your lil'sister who gets involved with the wrong type of guy in the adult industry.
I couldn't have said better! Mod me offtopic if you will, but please stop saying MacOS X == BSD!
Done and done.

The Register is slightly biased towards Linux and Free Software, no need to fear harm from them.
Don't you mean Petahertz? Pico- is very very small, and Peta is very very big...
Yes.

Yes, this is a fully bad idea.

You've just made my day. Thank you!
It requires GTK+ 1.x; I blame RedHat or Debian for installing GNOME when all you want is GTK. Requirements for Yahoo Messeger Unix:
http://messenger.yahoo.com/unix.php
X Window
GTK+ 1.2 or greater
OpenSSL 0.9.6 or greater
gdk-pixbuf 0.8 or greater
None of this require GNOME, only in the minds of the distro packagers.
Because I don't want the whole GNOME libs to run a single specific application?
