FreeBSD is a mature and solid UNIXoid. The base system is well separated from applications, these are installed via the famous ports tree. So you can go on with all the latest shiny KDE, GNOME etc. stuff without compromising stability of your base system.
FreeBSD itself is aimed at the technical minded, the derived PCBSD may be jack users friend.
