I've come across this article before. What struck me as interesting the first time I read it is the following sentence: "In many ways, FreeBSD has always been the operating system that GNU/Linux®-based operating systems should have been." Given this position, I find it curious that IBM chose to put the majority of their push behind Linux. Does anyone know if they use FreeBSD internally, and if so, for what?
