It's a mix of baby duck syndrome and conformism.

I wonder if that's why I like FreeBSD so much. I grew up with Windows, but someone in high school (old guy at the local community college I attended at the time) encouraged me to try FreeBSD and I really liked how different it was. I basically only use Linux now, but I still judge Linux by FreeBSD standards and I'd use FreeBSD if it had decent gaming support.

Or maybe it's because FreeBSD rocks.
