Intresting, my reasoning is the more I learn one system, the more I gain by
using that everywhere.  My custom FVWM configuration can follow me around, as
well as all the other "convienience" scripts and set ups.

I seriously considered using BSD for my laptop, but in the end went with Debian in case of hardware/software compatibility.  FreeBSD had some code of conduct I didn't like, and that was also a turn off.  Would still like to use it though.
