10 During startup it asks for keyboard layout, and boots to the root prompt rather than straight into X. 'startx' brings up a fairly nice gnome-based desktop. As yet I've only tried it on one machine, but it did correctly find video and soundcard, network, USB, etc.
11 Also it has a nice SMB browser and I've been told FreeBSD's inbuilt NTFS support is ahead of Linux's.
