Unix Operating System?

Hey all, I currently use FreeBSD and linux and have decided I want to use a proper Unix distrobution. Which Unix distro would you members recommend. The only requirments that I have is that I can use some pogramming utilities available. I don't mind the install process. One more thing, I know some Unix distro's are free but do you have to pay for the rest. Thanks alot in advance you guys Smilie

Please search the forums before asking questions; many questions have been answered before and this one is no exception. Searching for unix distro in the advanced search gave this.

BTW, FreeBSD is a 'unix', I think, even if Linux isn't quite.

Please feel free to correct the above sentence.
