Did once, though it has been awhile. Very good laptop support, but  
criminal lack of interest in the console. Best I understand, you can get a  
narrow selection of resolutions on *one* console, the first one. The  
others are hardwired into 80x25. I really like the console, and can't  
tolerate that. They also do not like Bash, making it hard to even use, and  
there are several other issues I found intolerable. They were  
unsympathetic when I asked the devs if they would help me write a  
simplified exploration of NetBSD as I did with FreeBSD. I understand their  
biases, and don't expect them to change.
