NetBSD: The Best of Open Source
NetBSD is cleanly architected, with a familiar API -- which means rapid time to market and lower development costs. Your Unix-fluent developers can begin using it right away. In addition:
  • NetBSD's TCP/IP implementation leads the industry, and is the basis of most TCP/IP implementations available today. Its networking functionality is unparalleled.
  • NetBSD's kernel is open source, but governed by the BSD license, not Linux's GPL. With NetBSD, OEMs may keep changes to the kernel and related modules proprietary - with no threat of litigation or code exposure.
  • NetBSD has a very small footprint; complete iSCSI application runs in 8MB flash on Intel XScale platforms with room to spare.
  • Thanks to NetBSD's thirty-year code heritage, its advanced technical features include POSIX compliance, high performance threads, IPv6 and IPSec, 32- and 64- bit support, performance-optimized VM, and high-performance file systems.
