In my humble opinion (I'm somewhat new at this). I tried FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD in that order, and finally settled on FreeBSD. FreeBSD's easy to use and has all the bells & whistles, best documentation, and seems to be a little more conservative with it's components (eg. still uses tried&true Xfree86 3.3.6... which is good, I couldn't get 4x to work) Openbsd's default install is very secure (so secure that I could not configure it to send or receive any mail). This one's not for beginners, I gave up trying to make it do anything useful... NetBSD's default install is sparse, but it runs on just about anything!
