:7 Reasons Why BSD Is Better than Linux
7 Reasons Why BSD Is Better than Linux

(Other stories by Matt Hartley)

"Unlike Linux, BSD user interests lay with stability, speed and control over their computing environment. You rarely hear from these BSD users, as they have nothing to preach. Use the desktop friendly FreeBSD or don't, it's not a concern to existing users or the operating system's developers. Because of this lack of interest in turning the world into users, the various versions of BSD are free to do what they were designed to do, and that is run computers/servers in their various capacities."
