BSD is great for apple, not so much for apple users, because the BSD 
license allows apple to take and not give.  If you're ok with that, and 
you want things to "just work", apple offers very good integration I 
understand.

You can take a BSD licensed app completely closed source, not the case 
for the Linux kernel, Firefox, all those GNU utilities, etc.
