Google=yes
All the others, no.  I don't like Yahoo, or Hotmail. (Don't forget what 
most of Hotmail runs on, either...  Sun...), and slahdot is just 
annoying.
But, If you want to use that argument, then you're more likely to run 
into Solaris before FreeBSD. Or even <shudder> Winblows.
Besides, my intent was to center around *personal* use.  I play with 
openBSD, but for all of my work it's either Solaris/SPARC or MacOS.  For 
the most part, I find x86-based systems to be crude and 
poorly-designed.  I know I generalize, and I had to, I'd own an 
AMD-based system running a BSD or Solaris x86, but overall I'm not 
impressed.
What's even more amazing is that somehow I function just fine. :-)
