[Sorry Rolf]

One of the things I absolutely love about FreeBSD
is the 'Minimal Install' option. I can't tell you how
fast you can install and boot the base system but
its F-A-S-T! Then, I can fetch latest ports and
install _what_I_Want_ - not what someone else
thinks I *might* want. This gets top marks in my
opinion.

I guess for desktop users there might be an option
"X-Windows + KDE" or Gnome or XFCE and
you get base plus X plus GUI ~ there probably is
but I never used them at all :)

Sorry if this has been said before ;-)
