I've used PCBSD for a little bit now, and I'm impressed so far. It does come with some questionable software taking up space on the install CD, but luckily those aren't installed by default.
I can't use PCBSD yet to replace my main computer, but I may put it onto my next laptop. Too bad the nearest Fry's is about 1200 miles away...
