"It is my great pleasure and privilege to announce the availability of FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE. This release is the next step in the development of the 6.X branch, delivering several performance improvements, many bugfixes, and a few new features. These include: Addition of a keyboard multiplexer. This allows USB and PS/2 keyboards to coexist without any special options at boot. Many fixes for filesystem stability. High load stress tests are now run successfully on a regular basis as part of the normal FreeBSD QA process. Automatic configuration for man Bluetooth devices, as well as automatic support for running WiFi access points. Addition of drivers for new ethernet and SAS and SATA RAID controllers."

It's good to see another BSD release. Unfortunately, I recently have switched to using Gentoo for a few reasons that I won't get into here.
I'm hoping to be able to set up another BSD server in the future cause personally, I love it. Portupgrade might be showing a bit of age, but it's still powerful and the reason I ended up picking up FreeBSD back in about the 4.6 days.
Hmmm. Maybe I should do a conversion this weekend....
