This is easy... (yeah, sure)

We are systematically replacing (as they reach end-of-life) all our 
Sun and HP servers with FreeBSD Intel boxes. We have 4 FreeBSD 
servers and one FreeBSD router running now. (4 down, 5 to go)  :-) 
They run VERY well, and for now I don't consider any other solutions.

Most of us run Linux on our desktops, however, only because new 
device drivers are usually available sooner, and some of us like the 
slick X-windows configurations that come with RedHat and Caldera.

Just my opinion... your mileage may vary.

So, for us... on a network server FreeBSD wins hands down. On the 
desktop, it's a toss-up.
