I've been using FreeBSD since the 8.1 release a few weeks back and as my first *BSD experience it is fantastic. The only thing which will keep me from committing to it is the absence of a stable and/or official version of Google Chrome (the only freebsd versions of Chromium I've found have been very much alpha software). I (like a lot of people I suppose) spend too much time in my browser to have this be a negotiable point. I have been very much impressed by the cohesiveness of the platform (akin to what Ubuntu has achieved on the linux side) and the documentation is fantastic so if you're a FF user anyway, go for it.
