I am running FreeBSD 9.3R-p13 on this box, love it. I am still newish to 
the *BSD's, so I have 1 bit of puzzlement with pkg/ports. I maintain the 
box w/ pkg almost exclusively, using ports only for browser flash 
support, nothing else. I nonetheless (try to) keep my ports tree up to 
date, in case I want to play around w/ compiling stuff locally for 
better performance, etc. I commonly (not quite daily, but several time a 
week) run CLI commands to check on availability of pkg/ports upgrades, 
see below from this A.M.:

We see about 125 pkg's w/ upgrades available, but no ports. I thought 
pkg's were made from ports, thus if there were/are new pkg's, there 
ought to be (approximately) corresponding new ports, no ? This is *not* 
a serious issue, BTW, just a matter of my understanding being a bit off, 
so I am just looking for clarification. TIA & have a nice weekend :-) ....
