@psqtau LOOL FreeBSD ISN't A UNIX? LOOOL That's a new Joke. FreeBSD IS ONE OF THE FIRST OPERATING SYSTEMS. When BSD jerked in 70's~80's Machintosh and Linux grew up from its sperms.

@idexbsd He doesn't need to read, you already tell him!

GO BSD!!! To tell the truth free-BSD is my very favorite OS ever. There nothing that fast cool and stable as this one. Love it! It has never failed me. I do also use some Linux distros on my desktops (slackware, puppy, kubuntu) and RHEL on my HP proliant, but most of my staff runs free-BSD. celeron 600MGz 64 mb ram 10 g fujitsu IDE hdd, running free-BSD 7.3 as ftp server provides 13-30 MB/sec download speed on a hardware that about 14 years old. Can anything else but free-BSD do it?

@SharingEqualsCaring because of legal reasons

[emewify]

bsd is unix.. freebsd is a descendant of that but because of legal reasons you cant call it unix its unix-like maybe you should read a little as well

[SharingEqualsCaring]

Why does Distro Watch classify it as "FreeBSD is a UN*X-like operating system"?

I was thinking of trying out BSD for a bit, on a laptop just for the hell of it. Was thinking PC-BSD, but then I wouldn't be learning. Possibly going to try this.

[Azarien]

could you people just stop flaming what BSD is and what it is not on every BSD-related video? just go to Wikipedia and read.

@Wodey25 When I said I like the look of it, I didn't mean aesthetically. I simply meant that although I haven't tried FreeBSD, it appears to be pretty decent. I may try it out after what you've just written... :)

[Wodey25]

@thatguywithnoname The "look" of both products is 100% configurable by the user. FreeBSD might not have as many desktop users, but Linux users are spread across and fragmented into 2000 different distributions, whereas FreeBSD users all congregate in one place. As a result, the documentation is SUPER, and development is very well focused. FreeBSD is the bomb, and you'll find all the support you need with it; it's been this way since the 1990s. No worry about community; it's got a huge one.
