As others mention FreeBSD is somewhat different from the others. I
personally prefer FreeBSD because that it what I do best. If you don't
have any prior experiences with FreeBSD/Linux spent some time
installing them and install some ports/apps. Try to become aquainted
with the update tools using the command line interface, csup on
FreeBSD, apt on debian/ubuntu.
