Im thinking about using OpenBSD or FreeBSD for my desktop. Can someone tell the advantages of FreeBSD over OpenBSD?

I have a little bit of experience with openbsd (mostly firewall/pf)

Pro FreeBSD:

• Programs in ports tend to be updated more frequently (in the majority of cases) than OpenBSD packages, in my experience. (I mean between OS releases)
• Linux emulation is maintained, and a much higher priority than OpenBSDs.
• A number of linux binaries avail for quick via ports, e.g. opera, flash, teamspeak2, etc. Useful when there isn't access to the apps source code.
• For what use WINE is on BSD, it's probably the best on FreeBSD. Which ain't much use off Linux IMHO.
• Official'ish nVidia drivers, FWIW.
• Longer term of support for most releases than OpenBSD. (Security patches, errata, etc getting backported)
• FreeBSD /bin/sh is better for testing portability of shell scripts than OpenBSDs (pd)ksh based implementation
• More developers / eye balls
  

Pro OpenBSD:

• Easier to update base system
• Easier to update installed software
• It doesn't get easier to install than OpenBSD (IMHO)
• First to see improvements to PF
• Steady and dependable support cycle.
• Binary packages are much more reliable than FreeBSD, and generally preferred over ports! (FreeBSD is more of a source based distribution)
• Awesome version of ksh, that removes the need to install something else (bash, zsh, etc).
• The FAQ is golden. Read it, memorize it, redirect others to it.
• The system tends to be more compact
• Most interesting C library extensions and network drivers, tend to be ported from OpenBSD to FreeBSD/Linux; not so much the inverse.
  

If I keep going on OpenBSD, I'll hit the maximum size limits for posts, so I'll just say that I like that OS a lot .
