I have been on BSD almost as long as Linux (Linux = 95, FreeBSD = 97, OpenBSD = 99) and I have noted that BSD, in general, feels a lot better put together.
Linux is drifting away from the original UNIX simplicity, while BSDs stay true to their roots and stick to proven, tested technologies. While this provides a bit less 'excitement', it also provides something simpler and much more stable.
