FreeBSD is mainly server focused. There's been work on the desktop recently, but it isn't what FreeBSD devs are paid to focus on. To be fair to the people paying them, it's a damn good server OS. Also, check out DragonflyBSD. It has a really nice filesystem and Dillon does good work

DragonflyBSD is a beautifully well done OS.

  Especially their SMP model. Shame they didn't pick traction.

FreeBSD is focused on making a good, general purpose operating system. It just happens to be very good at being a server. It's also very good at being a desktop.

  Subpar wifi performance compared to Linux(perhaps better now?) subpar bluetooth, etc, etc, hardly makes it a good desktop OS. Passable yes, if you love it, but let's be realistic. I love FreeBSD btw.
