"Naturally, it's not something you can earn any money out of" Says who? Ask any hedge fund manager how they beat the other funds to the exchange. Modded Linux Kernels (among many other reasons of course). Those guys are remunerated through the roof. Don't assume something doesn't make money because its not built on top of rails. The more expensive a computer, the more likely it is that it runs on a custom operating system written by really expensive operating syetem experts.
