FreeBSD's main goal was (is?) to be the best x86 UNIX-based server available. Other platforms, namely SPARC and Alpha, that are widely used for servers are slowly being supported. A mac will either use a Motorla 6800x or a PowerPC proccessor (newer ones, such as an imac, use PowerPC); both of these are not supported. The best alternative would be NetBSD.
