Can I replace win8 with BSD? [pc/free]bsd *can* be used as a desktop system, but it's really aimed more at servers... a lot of common desktopy things aren't covered well. Based on the wording of your question it sounds like you're new to non-windows systems. I'd suggest you look into some flavor of linux instead (eg; "ubuntu" or "mint"): they'll be geared more towards what you'd be looking for I think. ______________________________________ it has a certain smooth-brained appeal
