The Handbook that came with my set of 4.2 cd's says
FreeBSD is a mainly intel thing with some support for alpha, Open BSD is 
basically FreeBSD but with support for practically any type of  CPU/Platform
NetBSD is aimed at the server market supporting basically Intel Chips but 
optimized for security. At least that's what I remember it saying.......:-)
