All of BSD's what? All of its cookies?

If you meant to say that all flavors of BSD are intended primarily for servers, you are mistaken. See DesktopBSD and PC-BSD for instance.

FreeBSD on the other hand is indeed more geared towards server use, although a sufficiently knowledgeable user can also make it work on the desktop if (s)he can be bothered to put in the work.

I take it you're referring to Linux here. Most of us here probably think FreeBSD is better than Linux (we wouldn't be here if we didn't) but it's not a competition thing. Linux is Linux, FreeBSD is FreeBSD. They are different operating systems with different focus.

I'd like to think he meant the main 4:

NetBSD
FreeBSD
OpenBSD
DragonflyBSD

and not the so called derivatives or inbred osx
 
I'm guessing fonz was having a laugh because grammatically it makes no sense.
It's like saying "all wheel's are made for cars".

Even so, it's still a silly statement.

This guy was given a free Heineken at a local bar, then complains to the Heineken factory that all beers taste like Heineken (which is not true) and claims that Heineken should taste more like dishwater (okay, to some people it does, but let's not go there...) :beergrin

Any modern desktop without nVidia graphics will most probably end up needing it no more then a "true" server does though.

In that case so is OpenBSD it was "derived" from NetBSD.

I suppose it's a bit of a thin line.

On one hand you're absolutely right: OpenBSD was started as a fork of NetBSD by Theo because he got kicked off the NetBSD devel team. But on the other hand that was several years ago and in the meantime OpenBSD has evolved independently into a distinct operating system in its own right, with a large community of its own.

Whether or not the same applies to DragonflyBSD is perhaps somewhat debatable. Personally I really don't strongly feel one way or the other, but I do think that DragonflyBSD's ties with FreeBSD seem stronger than OpenBSD's ties with NetBSD.

Fonz (just for what it's worth, I really don't mean to make a big deal out of this)

I believe that wiki page is off by putting DragonFlyBSD in the same category as PC-BSD and DesktopBSD.

Feel free to fix it, or send me a PM with [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] and I'll do the fixing.
