See the release notes, if you’re curious.
I had been using FreeBSD 6.x and later 7.0 until I bought my current home server, about a year and a half ago, which had a SATA controller that FreeBSD didn’t detect out of the box. I used that as an excuse to try out Linux as a server again, and switched to Ubuntu, which I’m still using right now. But FreeBSD is a very nice OS, and I miss some parts of it (such as pf, ported from OpenBSD, which I also used before, and which is infinitely better and more sane than the almost Lovecraftian horror of iptables.)
If I ever get a second home server, maybe I’ll try one of the BSDs again, just for fun.
