It is absolutely a bad idea for "beginners" to be using tagged/dated

How do they fall back when things went wrong?
The handbook states that there is no fall back option.
Their fall back option has a name: Windows.
No need for Windows propaganda here. We have had enough of this already.
Thanks.
By the way, for those who tried FreeBSD and found it "too much", there
is another, way better alternative: OS X
Someone else does the packaging, testing etc. for you and you still
don't run Windows :)
This, of course, if the person, unlike you, does not ignore the advice
to use PC-BSD. The same FreeBSD, with someone else taking care of
watching the ports tree, configuring, compiling, packaging etc.
