The main thing that I think separates the two is stability. Since the development environment is so different (with the Core deciding what goes in or not) BSD seems to be a lot more stable and forgiving (luckily for me) than Linux. Also with Linux, each distribution is different, sometimes to an alarming degree, even though most are aiming at similar areas of the "User Market".

Just wondering whats the difference between freebsd and linux distributions, it uses the same things and even uses X , isn't it a distribution of linux ? what seperates it from that ?
