I chose Slackware because that's my main machine, but I also run NetBSD on an old iMac G4. I chose NetBSD because it will run on a huge range of hardware, and it works very well on the G4.
So you want to know why? Well, because it is still a nice looking bit of furniture, so it sits on my bookcase cycling through a range of webcams from around the world, like a set of ever-changing postcards.
(There are some great webcams out there. I especially like the Antarctic ones that show penguins and seals roaming around, and some of the isolated tropical beaches are nice too. You also get a nice sense of the changing seasons.)

I'd love to hear from the 3 people who picked NetBSD.
