Here are the main differences:
*BSD vs. Linux - *BSD sources are closely maintained by a small group of
people, Linux is more open.
I really don't want to debate which is better.
*BSD differences -
NetBSD - concentration on making it run on every kind of hardware
FreeBSD - concentration on stability and performance
OpenBSD - concentration on security
Again, I don't really want to debate which is better - it's a matter of
personal preference.
