Aloha,

I have been down loading various ports for 7.0 CURRENT since January. 2007
Only problems I have had were with the Open Office Download  and the Sun 
licensing. I have never been able to clear the errors on that issue.
All the other down loads from Ports and the OS itself have been flawless 
on several boxes with different motherboards.
Some older motherboards can give you grief with downloads and using  
HD's over  10 gigs or so.
