Hi All,
 
Having a good weekend??? Let me not make it boring I will get straight to the point.
 
I have read in FreeBSD documentation, while comparing with the Linux kernel we claim FreeBSD to be a complete operating system which provides not just the kernel but also other utilies surrounding the kernel making it a complete operating system.
My question is "Why doesn't FreeBSD have it's own desktop environment" something like what Ubuntu Linux is trying to achieve with their Unity Desktop environment.
In doing so we will carve a niche for ourselves in the end user space.
 
What does the forum have to say about this?
 
Regards,
Alwin
