Similar to "Windows NT 4.0" as a professional Windows.  "Windows 2008" vs Vista


I read the magazine article title as "to everyone who wants a
linux/unix like system, FreeBSD is the professional choice"

It's all interpreted to the reader...  however typing "Debian" when
being sent to a FreeBSD list is completely misdirected, I would have
ignored it if it wasn't for the fact that there were so many responses
to this thread.
