I think this version is (finally) the end of my long, sordid affair with Linux and my occasional flings with Windows.
Exhibit A: My wifi and ethernet work! And so does my ACPI! At the same time, too!
Exhibit B: Both KDE 3 and Firefox 10 are available in the package repos.
Exhibit C: automounter. Works just like the mounting system in Win2k... Or like autofs on Linux, only much less finicky and much more friendly. HAL automounting in KDE didn't work, so I installed this; now I have no reason to use HAL automounting at all.
Next up: printing via CUPS, and maybe ACPI suspend/hibernate if I can be bothered.
Meanwhile I am quite greatful to the FreeBSD developers for maintaining this OS, fixing its bugs, and not breaking everything every six months! Thanks guys!
