FreeBSD/NetBSD good as all-purpose computer?

Everything from surfing the net, to chatting online, to hosting FTP/HTTP/email server.

is that a question or a suggestion.

FreeBSD is a pretty good desktop aide. NetBSD is more on the server side.

This thread has a similar discussion. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=230502

It was a question. Hence the question mark on the title.

Thanks for the simular discussion link. I will give FreeBSD a try.
