I will, as is my wont, download the ISO for it and probably check it out. If you've played with it at all, please comment!

DragonFly BSD
I earlier mentioned DragonFly BSD, and here's its home link. DragonFly BSD is a branch off of the very nice FreeBSD 4.x line, taking a slightly different direction than FreeBSD 5.x. Read the main page for more info, as I haven't checked it out too much.

OSNews.com
This is a cool site that talks about the latest efforts in a wide variety of OSes, including, of course FreeBSD. It's sort of a slashdot for OS geeks like myself. My problem is that I'm such a junkie for these things, that I find myself downloading ISOs like crazy! Heck, I even just recently downloaded a copy of FreeDOS! Like I need a new DOS prompt :-)
LiveBSD.com
An excellent looking site for downloading a complete BSD system. It includes ISOs that come with Desktop Apps (I'm downloading this as we speak), one with "Security" apps, as well as a DragonFlyBSD LiveCD.
I'm downloading the KDE version because I'm going to dabble in the graphical BSD world finally. My server just runs as a text machine, but I want to set up a backup server that will backup the various machines on my internal network, which run Linux (RedHat), Win2k, WinXP and, of course, FreeBSD. I'll be using the previously mentioned bacula to do this, but I figured I'd add even more fun by trying to install KDE with this one too.
