The point in favor of PC-BSD is the new user. I want my non geek girlfriend to be able to use my laptop if she wants to and I don't want to use Windoze or *buntu, or Mint, etc.
FreeBSD is as useful on the desktop as PC-BSD but setup is easier on PC-BSD. For me FreeBSD is as relevant on the desktop as any other OS.
I'm not a gamer, so I'm not too concerned with 3D acceleration.
