Thanks figaro,
Wireless shouldn't be a problem, all of my networking is done through an on-board gigabit NIC and and a quad-gigabit PCI card, and USB shouldn't be a problem either, if I need any media on USB I usually stick the USB drive in my Mac and pull the content over NFS (easier than fiddling around under the desk trying to open the server case).
One lasting question I do have, I've got a couple of Sun training manuals for administering Solaris, is there anything similar for FreeBSD? I know there is the handbook, but thought that might be more of a reference as apposed to a howto/training manual...
My main concern is management of resources like disks, networks, processes and services as I'd have thought they'd be different to Solaris...
