Hi,
I'm a master degree student ant my thesis include .net and C#. I would like
to know which platforms (operating systems) does .Net support right now? I
know there there is .Net support for FreeBSD and windows. How about mac,
unix and various linux distribution?

Windows 98, Windows NT4, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003.

No support for FreeBSD - don't know where you got that from...
 
Doesn't .Net supposed to be OS independent just like JVM? I thought there
were support for other OS than windows versions? I know about a project
called "mono project". They are developing av linux version of .Net.

Check out www.go-mono.com and search for Rotor on Microsoft. Rotor is a
Shared source implementation of the CLI. It runs on BSD, Mac OS X, Windows
and maybe some others, AFAIK.

Mono's got a lot of stuff done, and a lot of support (we put it on a
client's linux machine in a production environment, and it's running fine).

Mono isn't "there yet" and doesn't do Windows Forms apps.
CLR is designed so that it can be ported, but someone has to pony up the dev
dollars to do it. Microsoft isn't doing it.
