If you take the time involved in installing a basic MS Windows system vs. a basic FreeBSD system, Windows will usually win. A big plus is that Windows actually can get a wireless system up and running by itself, sans perhaps supplying the password. Does FreeBSD even support using the WPS Button on the Wi-Fi Router? Plus, you then have to install a GUI. Now, if you want to compare a FreeBSD system sans GUI, you have to compare it against a MS Server, not the regular Windows version design for home or office users. This is not about "hand-holding"; it is about bring the OS into the modern age. My machine is supposed to be my slave, not the other way around. Thanks for your comment anyway. --=20 Carmel
