Being pro FreeBSD, I would have to say that one thing that seperates them is FreeBSD seems to have better documentation. Both commercially published and online. I run FreeBSD on our firewall at work and have had no problems, while OpenBSD aims to be more secure I have never had security issues with FreeBSD. I have two web servers running FreeBSD without any problems either. One reason I liked Freebsd when I first started out was FreeBSD's website was easier to navigate and was less intimidating the OpenBSD or NetBSD. Of course I have always had x86 hardware except for a Old Sparc that NetBSD wouldn't run on. Also I think FreeBSD is farther ahead in SMP, but I can't definitively qaulify that. Anyhow that's my completely biased opinion.
