There is nothing like business or home edition, this is not MS world.

PC-BSD = FreeBSD under the hood + grapchical QT based installer + preconfigured KDE + KDE/QT tools + PBI package system.

Looking at http://www.pcbsd.org/, it does appear that they offer those two different versions but if you click on the links and even check the download section, it is pretty obvious that they offer one version.

The root page is a bit misleading, but there is apparently only one version.

Havent noticed these home/bussiness buttons before ...

Like I said there is just PC-BSD, nothing like home or buisness edition does not exist, but yes, its pretty misleading, since there are several similar divisions in other camps, Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server for example.

PC-BSD community talked many times on their forums.pcbsd.org about totaly changing/redesigning their pcbsd.org website, lets hope that they will DO IT some time.
