@Reiddragon
OpenBSD: Relentlessly security & correctness focused. Theo is an asshole who's usually/always right.

FreeBSD: Comes with most of the nice amenities of a user-friendly UNIX. Fantastic documentation. Friendly community. Dragonfly, etc. have even more desktop stuff configured.

NetBSD: Works on your toaster & a computer from 1995 which sold 1000 units.

@mdhughes @Reiddragon Don't mix FreeBSD with Dragonfly. They've nothing in common apart from Matthew Dillon who has being part of FreeBSD development in the past before he forked it from FreeBSD 4.8
