Hi!

Say, I am a little confused: What's the difference between FreeBSD and
NetBSD ?

Regards,

NetBSD is the BSD that'll boot on your kitchen sink. FreeBSD is the one you
want to run the 24x7 x86 or Sparc Server on.

This is a very general question.  It's not easy to answer, if you
don't have a specific application in mind.  They both have good and
bad points.  They both have common things and vastly different parts
from each other.

What is is exactly that you have in mind?

Without a more specific question about areas of interest to you, the
only valid answer that you can get is ``Check their respective
web-sites.  Install them both and give them at least a fair amount of
time.  Learn how they both work, or read as much as you can about it.
Then you'll be able to see if there is any difference.''
