FreeBSD
OpenBSD
NetBSD
Or Sun have just open sourced Solaris.

Heh, I think that people who complain that Linux is too user-unfriendly for them will have an even tougher time with BSD
I think that Sun's decision to open source Solaris was an extremely brave one to take, and also a highly commendable one. I really hope it pays off for them having taken such a risk. Although I've yet to use Solaris on an x86 box, I've only used it on SPARC machines. Anyone here tried it on an Intel box?
