Just tried my first install last night. Made the mistake of not noticing
that the default setup uses devfs, so my kernel died on delivery.
	It's kinda fun in a bootstrap way, but I'd say at this point the
install/build is much slower and more time consuming. Alas, I can't report
on the advantages yet, but I'll probably get the energy to access the
filesystem and build another kernel sometime today.
	The "look" going in is it's a pain in the wazoo, but does allow
you to customize with abandon (and, as I must, abandon your
customization).
	Cheap!
