I get you, I have an openbsd desktop setup I love to death. It just makes me feel empowered compared to windows, I mean, realistically it's not. it is openbsd, it's slow, no commercial software, no backwards compatibility, old software is always needing to be recompiled, nobody else uses openbsd so it is hard to get help.
But it is so comfortable, I know where everything is, The system is simple enough for me to understand every part of it, the init system is a simple shell script, it is right there, you can read and understand everything there is to know about openbsd boot in an hour. My window manager is fully described in one man page.
Windows angers me up every time I use it, linux is a little better, but still has too much magic going on, I love this openbsd desktop setup. plus I have an old thinkpad x131 that runs obsd perfectly, I will be very sad when it dies.
