I ended up wiping freebsd and going with linux too. (for me, I needed
audacity and I just could not make it work on freebsd for anything, not
matter how hard I tried)
Anyway, if you like freebsd ports, gentoo is OK. You can compile stuff
with settings that apply to whatever YOU need instead of the generic
settings.
Slackware is nice & simple. (but can be hard to maintain)
I don't recommend any of the debian variants, largely because you might
have to deal with other debian people, it's like a cult culture or
something over there, debiantology.
The RPM stuff (fedora & redhat) seems really great at first, until it
blows up and you're stuck in dependency hell. Perhaps they've improved
that by now though. my corporate-ish clients use the RPM based linux
because I haven't talked them into freebsd :-)
