I agree. NetBSD does not get the recognition it deserves, especially if 
you tinker withwith a diverse lot of hardware or sell appliances/devices .

I am not a device maker or OS hacker yet I love to run NetBSD and its 
core services for all my plumbing (OS attackes are usually directed at 
Windows first and then Linux). Easy config, low TCO, high uptime and 
performance are SO TRUE. Only the requirements of specific apps or the 
occasional hurculean effort required to build/deploy on NetBSD drive me 
to use Linux and Windows on other servers. Unfortunately, Debian is 
starting to run on more and more platforms which eats away at the NetBSD 
portablity value. That leaves GPL-less and security of NetBSD as the 
major value add. We need to promote more for NetBSD!!
