25dec2010 In the first Innaugural admin awards archlinux has won best operating system.
The reasons arch edged out freebsd and netbsd surround the no upgrade abiity of archlinux that allows every part of the os even the kernel to be binary upgraded flawlessly and the stable yet current software installed with the pacman tool. Redhat linux a favorite linux distro and ubuntu fell to arch's superior abilities. Arch also scored points on dragonflybsd because compiling rare software on an up to date linux lacks the bugs found in dragonfly's pkgsrc.
Windows and proprietary unixes fell due to lack of stability, onerous charges for 100s of new installs, and heavy antivirus software slowing things down, problems that arch is free from.
Freebsd's offering of zfs was not enuf to sway judgement from archlinux getting the overall crown.
