I have been using FreeBSD as a server via console for a while now, but I
wanted to see what the GUI was like.  My only spare machine right now is
a P-300 w/ about 16meg ram, so I won't be screaming along, but I wanted
to start the process anyway.  I was looking through the ports, and I see
a ton of options.

What I am looking for is something simple to start with.  I figure a
file manager of some sort, a web browser, and text editor for doing
development work if I ever get to that point.

I know I am being really vague, but there are so many options, I wanted
to hear some recommendations.  Right now, I am thinking about going with
KDE3 as I have heard the name before.
