NetBSD uses?

Hello everyone,

Perhaps this is place I should have posted this thread, but I started it on the JLime forums in a post entitled "JLime vs. NetBSD", which could've been seen as a challenge. I've also posted on the BSD Forums about this, but no one has answered yet.
My main question is what kind of functionality would one gain by using NetBSD? I know it's very portable and seems elegant, clean, fast and cool, but I heard from the JLime guys that it was slow in a GUI environment. One advantage for the Jornada 7xx is that NetBSD works with sound, so that would be a reason, but I guess I'm asking the bigger question of "why"? I've heard that the BSDs' primary use is on the server, so what good would it do an HPC user? I've seen some benefits with Linux (JLime), and was wondering if anyone whose used NetBSD could give me some info. Also, It's been really hard to try and get NetBSD installed as compared to Linux since I think you have to have the OS installed on another computer. Perhaps I'll try to find a workaround...Anyways, is it really that slow, and how useful is it as compared to Windows CE or Linux?
