* FreeBSD runs on more platforms then listed on that page.
http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/
* IIRC NetBSD was a fork of FreeBSD, OpenBSD was a fork of NetBSD.
* 4.10 is the oldest non EOL'd release of FreeBSD, although FreeBSD
2.2.9 was released Apr. 01 of this year so techinally it's the oldest
non EOL'd release of FreeBSD.

*FreeBSD supports Ext3 fs, IIRC read only.
* You have no cat. for firewire support.
