What michael said is basicly what I understand, too. The best depends on what your usage is. I've heard that for networks, freebsd is best as an ftp/web/user server, openbsd as a firewall, and netbsd for odd hardware. I think all outperform Linux, just each greatly in different ways. FreeBSD is also bent on ease of use, so its probably the best for a personal desktop too. You can read the mission statements from each on their websites. I believe FreeBSD's is in its handbook..
