I used to run NetBSD a long time ago. A friend of mine was a developer
and kept nagging me to use it. I think I tried to go bleeding edge and
always ended up with some library incompatibilities. I'm sure things
are better these days. I actually quite liked it but ended with going
back to Linux with it being more the mainstream.
