FreeBSD is more a server than a desktop system. Ubuntu particularly is
more of a desktop.

That said, because it is a server its a hell of a lot more stable. I
know of an old server that was up for over a year and half without
rebooting. That has its drawbacks in that the fancy software like in
some multimedia takes longer to become available, but as an X box it'll
run better than others.

For reference, FreeBSD doesn't run linux software- it uses different
software distributions. But it can run some using a built in emulator-
but not off the bat, it has to be installed the "BSD way".
