When I started using -current, I had only about four months FreeBSD experience (started using FreeBSD in about May, -current in about September), but I haven't had any major problems with it. Yes, it's crashed a few times, but I realise that's to be expected when using -current, and I don't come on this list and act like a prat when it does crash.
