My introduction was a PC-BSD 1.0RC and FreeBSD 6.0-Release install on a Pentium III 500Mhz/384MB RAM with KDE 3.4.x and Blackbox 0.7x.x (if versioning memory serves) functioning as a desktop.
Which also served as a playtime introduction to server'ish features using FreeBSD 6.1/6.2 and SSH.
And as a test machine for NetBSD
Then finally settled as a general purpose file server running OpenBSD since 3.9 ;-)
If you can find it, you might want to up the RAM a little bit for desktop usage.
