Heh.  I use debian stable, debian unstable, and debian with an apt-source optimized build (gentoo-style) at home, depending on the machine's purposes, and a Quantian (Knoppix-based DVD (i.e. yet another Debian system) with statistical software and document processing tools) at work to avoid the WinXP machine on my desk.  I guess I'd try one of the two Debian BSD ports, if I really needed BSD...
