Just installed FreeBSD 7.1 on IBM thinkpad T40. So far I am loving it. Gnome running on it definitely looks more stable than debian.
Instead of iceweasel, you could actually run firefox. I have summarized some of my experiences here -

Only thing so far I seem to be missing is - lack of support for flash, so all flash based docs in firefox show blank. My main motivation is kernel development.
