My name is Garrett Cooper. I've been a FreeBSD user since 2002 (back in the 5.2 days) and contributor for a few years (docs, ports, src). I was most recently working at Cisco IronPort, but I now currently work with iXsystems on the FreeNAS/TrueNAS team!
2. What hardware are you using?
Several platforms:
A: 4 year old Macbook (I use it mostly for iTunes and syncing with my iPod/iPhone :P) (starr).
B: A couple custom built Xeon workstations (bayonetta, fallout, streetfighter).
C: An ASUS Netbook (akai-ntbk).
D: An Atom machine as a router (toaster).
E: A couple supermicro servers.
3. What OS are you running on your main desktop/laptop?
FreeBSD 9.0-BETA2
4. What software do you use the most?
I use alpine as my mail client; audacious as my music player; firefox as my browser; irssi as my IRC client; python and sh for scripting fun; transmission for torrent downloading; vim as my editor; virtualbox for running VMs; and vlc as my video player.
5.What hardware is your main system on?
My main system "bayonetta" has a 3TB of storage (1 unRAIDed disk, 2TB RAID10 storage) with an LSI 8704ELP card, a SB Audigy 2 soundcard, and nVidia GeForce 9500 GT.
6. What is your dream setup?
A: A workstation hooked up to multiple 24"+ displays (someday I'll have to upgrade to 30" when one of my monitors dies :D..), but has enough juice to run a few 64-bit VMs and do some builds, and some of the trimmings I showed above :).
B: A dedicated server where I can house my files using ZFS28+.
C: A laptop that suspends and resumes (I have this working on my Netbook, but it could be polished up a bit more with the default OS settings) with all of the vendor specific buttons (display brightness, wifi toggle, etc) working.
7. Care to share a screenshot of your desktop?
