Seems legit. I identify as an OpenBSD user for reasons I suspect are true of many GNU/Linux users: I had to choose OpenBSD for myself, and make a not-exactly-trivial effort to not only get it installed, but learn how to use it effectively and create a comfortable computing environment for myself. Because I've actively chosen to use OpenBSD on my personal equipment, I identify as an OpenBSD user.
I don't identify as a Mac user even though my day job has issued me a Mac for use at work, because there's no personal choice involved other than my choice to work at a company that gives its developers Macs. The OS is just there, and I deal with it in order to do my job and get paid. I don't identify as a Windows user for similar reasons; when I worked at Microsoft shops I used what they gave me and put up with the OS because I had to.
