I have been playing with FreeBSD for the last 1 year and some time ago i decide to give openbsd a try. I have been loving Free! Now, playing with Open is no trouble. Some questions came up: 1) What are the advantages/disadavantages of using FreeBSD or OpenBSD? 2) FreeBSD has proven to be a high quality OS for stupid heavy loaded site (ftp.cdrom.com)! Can OpenBSD support such a very loaded site? Since i have never seen such a heavy loaded site using Open, i would like to know if it (Open) can support such a load using the same hardware Free uses. 3) What are the advantage from OpenBSD over FreeBSD, and FreeBSD over OpenBSD! Thanks a lot for time and cooperation. PS: I am not asking which is the best OS (a kind of question that should never be asked). I only want to know the good/bad things about both of them, since no OS is perfect! -- If you're happy, you're successful.
