I'm installing freebsd on a dell laptop (latituted).  It only has a 6 gig drive.

I guess my concern is to keep the install small both required memory and disk space.  Yet, i would like to use the 'newest' version in hopes that it will have the latest kde and xfree stuff.  This may be a mistake though.

if the choice is between 4.6.2 and 4.7 which would be a better install if the criterion were
1) keep the install small (hard disk space)
2) keep the working set small in ram
3) make sure the important ports will work  -- kde, openoffice, -- a good gui browser (any recommendations) and zope

tia.
