	   I know 386BSD or netBSD etc are good PC Unix versions. But I was 
   by someone else, that no active work is being done on these. I am curious to 
   know, if it is true. Compared to Linux, what kind of activity is going on
   with these.

All of the current *BSD variants are being VERY actively worked on.
386BSD hasn't been very much in the limelight lately, but it's not
dead.  Bill Jolitz is still working on it.
