  1. BSD/OS vs FreeBSD, etc? by Tumbleweed · · Score: 2

    I've never been able to find out much info comparing BSD/OS and FreeBSD - can anyone give a quick overview of what the major differences are?

  2. Re:new releases. by dcs · · Score: 2

    Because {Free,Net,Open}BSD are much more important to the Slashdot community than BSD/OS.

    For one thing, anyone who wants can get the first three, just clicking on one of the URLs in the stories. The last one requires $$$.
