    Yes, it is worth it.

    I have been using FreeBSD as a desktop software, and am now using it 90%
    successfully on my new laptop. I highly recommend it. If you have any
    problems setting it up, you've already found the place to ask!

    Subject: Infomation of FreeBSD

       Hi im looking for infomation of BSD I have been running linux for a
       few months after getting rid of winblows (well its still partition
       somewere on my hard drive) and I just want to know because im a
    newbie
       for Unix based operating systems is BSD simple to use because I want
       to run it because of its high security rateings and also because the
       demond looks cooler than that penguin all I would like it for is
       Desktop use and maybe a few servers to access my computer from
       college. Is it worth downloading because i cant be bothed to wait 4
       hours for each disk image to finish
