It's *really* a Workstation OS, not a server OS. Despite my love of  
Linux, there are "creature comforts" in MOSXS that simply aren't  
there on Linux yet. Like a decent diagramming program (Glyphix). Or a  
decent Entity-Relationship modeller (EOModeler). As that's what I'm  
doing for a good chunk of my day, MOSXS makes sense. Plus my coworker  
toasted her Blue & White G3 with a LinuxPPC 5 install and I'm  
waiting for her to fix it so I'm sure my install will work. :)

Some of the GnuStep people MUST know this. I do know that almost  
everything is really text-based (as is the Unix convention). I was  
able to successfully edit EOModeler models last year (after a few bad  
trials). Also, some of the key developers (like those at Omniweb)  
would know I'm sure.

Now that I don't know.
