Some of us like being able to tailor our OS to our tastes and needs.

If having the system we want means that developers need to roll up their sleeves and work for a living, so be it.

This developer finds the prospect exciting, making systems for how people want to work rather than telling people how to work to fit my system.


PS: Ever heard of BSD? It's the open source kernel that made NeXT/OS X possible.
