FreeBSD was derived from BSDlite which itself was derived from the =
original UNIX System V from AT&T (afaik).  better check the history of =
fbsd at their website.

as far as reliability and speed i find fbsd to be reliable than linux.  =
ever tried resetting your pc in succession without a graceful shutdown?  =
linux would throw up!

  Dear Sirs;
  =20
  I'm considering trying FreeBSD and have experience with both System 5 =
Version 4, Redhat Linux 6.xx and greater and Suse 6.x.x and greater.What =
are their similarities and differences. Is your OS closer to Unix if so =
exactly without writing paragraphs are the major differences; if any? =
Why if I'm use to using and familiar with Redhat or Suse would I want to =
switch to FreeBSD?
