As for BSD inspite of having all the advantages that they did a full 4 years ahead of linux they have (mostly) fallen behind.
There are other reasons for BSD falling behind. The major reason being the lawsuit. Linus has gone on record saying that he wuld never have developed on Linux were it not for the lawsuit. You need to get your facts right. Also till the recent past (about 2-3 years), Freebsd was neck-to-neck with Linux in terms of technology.
