You might want to try either using a LiveCD version to get familiar with FreeBSD, like FreeSBIE http://www2.freesbie.org/ which is also installable by running a script from a terminal while logged into the FreeSBIE desktop, or for a more newbie friendly non-liveCD distribution, I'd take a look at PC-BSD http://www.pcbsd.org/ . FreeSBIE uses the XFCE4 desktop as default, although after installing to your harddrive, KDE is installable through the FreeBSD "ports" system. PC-BSD utilizes the KDE 3.4.0 desktop as the default. Good luck, hope that helps.
