As long as you can't tell by yourself, you are usually better off with
FreeBSD, since it is easier to install and has more resources to
support new users (handbook, people on mailinglists, user
groups/people in your town).

I think it is technically superiour in most ways that matter for me,
but seem from an observer coming from Linux (or worse), that is not as
relevant as the first point.

As a side note, if you choose FreeBSD, take 4.0, not 3.4.
