For providing such a great OS. There are many places, but I'm sure you've been heard already. Thanks for your kind words. > Secondly: being myself an ex-gamer, I'm wondering if it is possible to > run Mac OS games under FreeBSD.

Unfortunately, Mac OS games just don't run on anything but Mac OS itself. Many Linux games and some windows ones run flawlessly on FreeBSD, though, with no or subtle performance penalties. On the other hand, you might have heard that Mac OS X is based on FreeBSD. They removed all the clear things you were talking about, slipstreamed a clear-looking GUI and put a price tag on it. The result is a pretty good desktop OS (for a commercial one that is). You might want to try it out. Take care!
