Well, the other issue may be that there are several programs that have been
written specifically for Linux that people may be interested in running.
As I will soon be doing GIS work, I am hoping that Linux mac comes out in
the near future as there is a Linux version of GRASS (the standard GIS
system) already available.  I have no idea if it would work as well on any
of the BSD flavors, and it looks like a long time until MacBSD is running
on my powerbook 540c.
