Hi. How FreeBSD differ from any Linx distro like Ubuntu? Thanks.

Others have answered this sufficiently, but I wonder if this shouldn't be made into a FAQ item. It's certainly asked enough.

There have been extensive articles on this subject. I don't have my links conveniently available at the moment, but a brief search should turn up several There are links on the FreeBSD site and Onlamp and other places have extensive notes - both from pro FreeBSD perspectives and even some more pro Linux. But most are pretty neutral, just giving information.

So, do a little searching.
