What michael said is basicly what I understand, too. The best depends on 
what your usage is. I've heard that for networks, freebsd is best as an 
ftp/web/user server, openbsd as a firewall, and netbsd for odd hardware. 
I think all outperform Linux, just each greatly in different ways. 
FreeBSD is also bent on ease of use, so its probably the best for a 
personal desktop too.

You can read the mission statements from each on their websites. I 
believe FreeBSD's is in its handbook..
