FreeBSD because it has a cooler md5:

fd861d80cc9153edc2d68a3d67980385 is much better than
1b61f2a016f7478478fcb13130fcec7b.

Yes.

FreeBSD is more compatible with Linux than Linux is with FreeBSD.

Please, this question is asked every other day.  Go search DejaNews or
read some FAQs or just try them out yourself.
