I'm a UNIX fan using OS X as my primary operating system and Debian as well. Probably like many people on Slashdot, I think technology is a good thing, that too often falls into the wrong hands and is used incorrectly. Computers have the power to do a lot of good, but when greed gets involved (in the case of certain unnamed monopolies) no one benefits, and they only become another tool of enslavement.
