FreeBSD -- better hurry and get 1.1.5.1 before the end of July. If you aren't sure about your hacking skills, though, it's the only one to get. NetBSD -- Definitely the system of choice for deep wizardry. Ported to everything bigger than a Timex Sinclair, it sometimes seems. Installation is still a bit flukey, and it's not got a very aggressive release schedule.
