Hey, fast installs are great and all, but lets get down to the meat of
things:

1. is /etc sane and orderly?
2. do startup scripts use the rcordered approach or dependency resolution?
3. are packages installed somewhere other than /usr (ie /usr/pkg) and is
   is configurable?
4. is there a base system, and how functionally complete is it? 
5. PAMified or not?

I'm still looking for a *BSDish distro for when I need some feature
that (Net|Free)BSD doesn't support or when I am mandated to use 
Linux.
