Which *BSD is right for me?

I know that for me personally, Windows has outlived its welcome. While Windows XP is probably the best, most complete OS I've ever used, it's too much for me. It eats up my bandwidth, it monitors my actions and reports home, it's very tighly integrated with Passport, another Microsoft tracking system, and it costs hundreds of dollars. With so many other OSes available, about two years ago, when the decision was between Windows 98 or 2000, I began testing out new OSes. Considering FreeBSD was not an immediate decision - I had to warm up to it. And necessarily so. Though FreeBSD is often logical, even advanced and adventurous Windows users will face a fairly steep learning curve.
