That's actually a very good comparison to the best Linux distros... the
only tricks that PC-BSD missed are moving the configuration files into
some unfindable place and re-generating them from a different file that
the GUI generates in yet a a third place on every boot. Once the
ability to tweak it if you know what you want and how to use the
software is removed and then it will be the equal of the best of Linux
distros.
