The name. Plus it has a cool logo. That's it ;-)
No seriously, and hopefully trying to avoid the religous war that is
about to break here, the best answer is really:
FreeBSD is Unix meeting the PC. Linux is the PC meeting Unix.
FreeBSD is a cathedral. Linux is a bazzar.
Which is better is dependent on what you prefer - Catherdrals or
Bazzars.
There are, of course many technical points in favour and aginst both
parties, but in the end, one uses what one finds most convienient, or
offers some obscure feature the other doesn't that one needs.
