Not a bad idea. Remember though, most of what makes happy systems is the
administration, and customer support when the inevitable problems occur.
I'd be happy with any of BSDI/Open/Net/FreeBSD, _if_ the company has
clued-in support. The best system can be pretty awful without smarts and
compassion behind it.

And don't expect many to run all their operation on a single OS. I can say
from experience that it's essentially impossible to satisfy all ISP
operations and customer requirements with any single OS.

That said I'd pick a batch of 503/971 providers from thelist.com and start
firing off OS queries to support@. This should give you a small taste of
their relative support capabilities as well. And you might just bounce
your question off the freebsd-isp@freebsd.org list. You're sure to get a
few replies from alert Oregonians.

Good luck, enjoy the green, but take your umbrella. :)
