The only issue I hit is the version of firefox in the PCBSD port tree is broken, and I am going to stay away from the PBI as much as I can. I feel that PBI are too much like installing something under windows, i.e. install the app, and all the libraries it needs to run. In my option, a waste of space, and un-patched libraries on my system. Thank you, I will pass. I ended up enabling the normal FreeBSD ports tree to install it.

In other news, I got the latest version of [TrueOS](https://trueos.org) on my [Acer C720](https://smile.amazon.com/Acer-C720-Chromebook-11-6-Inch-4GB/dp/B00FNPD1OY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8).
