I have Linux on my desktop and I just put OpenBSD on my laptop. I was curious mostly because of any possible portability problems with scripts that I may write on one or the other. I suspect that for the stuff that I will be doing they will be mostly interchangeable since I don't see too many major differences, although BASH does seem to have more features like the history and process subbing. If it is a best practice to write in regular Bourne shell then I guess the question is largely irrelevant.
On a side note, I felt awfully stupid after refreshing the board and saw this topic. I thought " Damn, someone asked the same question before I did!"
