prety much all the unix & unix-like systems are more or less same - some are somewhat better for particular purposes. if you need fairly heavy hw you'd probably be better of using e.g. solaris. etc...
my point is that evangelizing one of these systems over another is somewhat missing the point of unix - interoperability, portability etc.
e.g. at this point my favourite system is debian linux - but that doesn't mean I am not quite happy using freebsd at work... (or solaris at previous work... or even sco unix and interactive unix back in times when there was no linux or free bsd systems (at least I didn't know of any)... or ultrix). it's all the same. one can support more processors, one has better driver support, one has extra good security record etc. and it changes as these systems evolve...
