The difference is sigficicant. Maybe if I say this here, having it in the archives will help *SOMEONE* at *SOME* point in the future :-) 95% of the questions I see asked about FreeBSD can be answered by reading the Handbook (http://freebsd.org/handbook/) Everyone newbie with a problem should first go there.
