Why would BSD Desktop need a powerful laptop? What applications are you running on a desktop BSD?


It's okay to vote me down but I really am wondering what Desktop BSD are doing? I have been an old Amiga guy that ended up finding a home with Linux. I tried BSD several times and have BSD running a server at my home. My experience with Desktop BSD just didn't see where you would use the available application that would need a strong computer except for developing for BSD?


I would assume the exact same applications that Linux users will be running. Maybe few VM in beehive as well.
