I am new to FreeBSD, and have only used Linux for less than a year.

I have read the "Handbook", also "FreeBSD An open-source system for your 
personal computer", they both suggest that I do a standard installation, 
whereas in "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey, his suggestion is to do the 
custom installation.   
Any suggestions as to which way to go.? 
 
Peter
