Somehow I doubt you'd have enough disk space to do this... You are giong to build EVERY port. Why? It's a huge waste of your system and time. Browse the ports and find some that interest you and do them individually. You could have some good stuff going in a matter of hours. For real fun... go with XWindows and Gnome or KDE. From there the imagination is your only holdback. -gerry
