   Ask your technically knowledgable friends which they run.  Ask
yourself who you'd rather ask for help when the machine doesn't
work properly, then find out what she's running and use it.  FreeBSD
and Linux are close enough to being the same thing so that you won't
notice any difference 99% of the time.
