Jumping from Solaris to BSD?

Hi all,

I currently run an OpenSolaris (b134) server at home for share media between a few computers (all Macs at the moment). I use ZFS to mirror a couple of disks and have a couple of SMF manifests.
My background is as a user of OS X and as a user of (Open)Solaris with formal training in administering Solaris 10 and Solaris 10 Internals.

I have two issues with OpenSolaris at this time, there is an amount of uncertainty in the OpenSolaris camp at the minute and I'm having terrible trouble getting some Perl stuff to work.

I'm looking at BSD to possibly replace OpenSolaris but I'm unsure as to what BSD OS to choose. FreeBSD looks like an initial good choice, but I'd really like some input from people who use BSD every day.

Many thanks for any comments,
Ben
