There are many reasons. For a start, variety is good. But that apart,
I have the hardware, and I want to run a free OS on each of them. Linux
doesn't support Turbochannel based Alphas, while NetBSD does. Equally,
Linux doesn't support black NeXT hardware. Neither does NetBSD (at least
not for my Turbo models), but the port is much closer to working than
the stalled Linux port.
