Not even close, desktop/laptop users make up maybe 10% of FreeBSD users, maybe even less.
It would still stink to get left behind, but then what would happen to PC-BSD? I'm sure a community derivative would still spring up to maintain a desktop version of some kind, FreeBSD is the only good desktop option if you want ZFS now that Open Indiana is pretty well dead. It still makes the most sense of any BSD or Linux as a multimedia oriented desktop OS for a power user, I think, because if you want:
1. OSS that is still well supported and not hacky like on the the few legacy Linux distros that use it.
2. ZFS for performance and data preservation (self healing software RAID) rather than being stuck with Btrfs or ancient file systems.
3. Non-obfuscated init system
4. Decent graphics drivers (yes, I know people hate NVIDIA, but when that driver works well on FreeBSD it is fantastic)
OpenBSD is just not an option for me because of the file system and lack of NVIDIA support. I could probably live with HAMMER if I switched to DragonFly, but I would hate to give up my NVIDIA GPUs and their ports selection is lacking. Honestly, FreeBSD + WINE + ZFS is a pretty winning combination for someone who just wants to play GOG games, store their data securely, and watch videos in 1080p.
Anyway, my reason for posting is that there is an interesting article on launchd and the BSDs I ran across and thought I'd post -
