>I'm going to look into VMW for FreeBSD since FreeBSD is my primary OS.

I haven't tried it since I don't have any other systems I want to run in a virtual place but qemu may be another option for you. It is in ports.

    PC BSD is cool, but it has outdated apps, and a very outdated KDE, plus almost no apps available with it's installer feature. So you're back to using ports and hoping everything goes fine.

    If it gets a bit more up to date packages and a bit larger software repository, it's really a killer solution - much better than what I've seen from Linux the last few years. They are right to move away from package managers for user apps. Only the system should be managed anyhow, apps should be legoblocks to be added and removed on the fly.
