huge BSD fan, but this is a debate I've come back to a few times. really like FreeBSD on my server but linux just has so much more happening, esp. on the desktop, there isn't really a comparison.

like maybe if I just needed a simple browsing-word-coding box, but there are Mac offerings there if I want to go fancy, or linux on a commodity Dell/Acer, if I don't, and most of the linux offerings are usable desktops right out of the metaphorical box
