According to the thread on the FreeBSD forums linked here somewhere below, the difference in motherboards is just a difference in report on Linux vs BSD. Other than that, on x86, they seem to compare a PAE-enabled linux kernel to a FreeBSD kernel without PAE. And different versions of Xorg, for some reason. And, yeah, Unity vs KDE. While most of it shouldn't matter (my money is on "Unity vs KDE makes all other differences negligible"), it's like they didn't even try to give the illusion they were doing things seriously.
