I was using a FreeBSD desktop for about two years as my main work machine and finally gave up after constant goofing around with things. I switched to Manjaro yesterday on a brand new laptop, I was blown away at how quickly everything worked right out of the box. It even had Steam on it. (Manjaro is an Arch based distro; I can see how Steam being on a default install would upset some people)

Ooo, thanks for the tip on Manjaro. I'm an Arch addict, give me the pure stuff. But I've been looking for a good alternative to Ubuntu Desktop for introducing Linux to newer users. Steam pre-packaged would be a plus for that demographic :) IMO, if someone doesn't like the design philosophy because it strays too far from Arch, why do they care? It's not actually Arch Linux. It doesn't affect them. That's the beauty of a fork.
