While I think FreeBSD has created a great piece of software I don't think you can say that they are as successful as Linux.

- jvdh 16y agoYou can't really compare the two. If you want to compare you'd have to look at GNU/Linux. Attributing that success to just the genius of Linus goes a bit too far.
- kunley 16y agoWhile the FreeBSD people didn't have their momentum to market themselves in a way Linux community had, they still manage to produce better system. The other thing is that most people, even who consider themselves OS hackers, don't need such sophisticated and cohesive system. Or they don't have an opportunity to really dive in to see the difference.
