I admire and greatly appreciate your passion for opensource though I fundamentally with your statement "Linux enabled work that would have been impossible on other platform" because the BSD's were around I believe (please correct me if I am wrong since I was only an infant at that time). I personally prefer BSD over GNU/Linux because the BSD license does not require the developer to give back the source code; effectively posing a limit and causing some people to think twice about using the GNU/Linux platform. While I appreciate all open-source projects and efforts, this is simply my stance as someone who is truly a very proud young Canadian geek!
