here is the link for solaris, get the latest (version 10)

http://www.freebsd.org/where.html

http://www.openbsd.org/ftp.html

http://www.netbsd.org/Releases/


Learning solaris is always good.
The others (BSD's)you see in the more 'enlightened' data centers.

Linux is getting very popular also.

I really like Suse, now owned by Novell.

http://www.xandros.com/about/downloads.html

this is another excellent choice

http://www.mandriva.com/

still another great choice

there is also redhat, in the US it's very popular - but Suse is much
nicer IMHO. Redhat doesn't have YAST, this makes Suse very user friendly.

On the linux side, you have many to choose from. Try out as many as you
like! See which one you prefer and have fun with it. See also Knoppix,
Gentoo.

good luck,

Oskar
