We debated whether or not this Exposure article was the right place to dive into specifics about our infrastructure and the choices we made (including our decision to use OS X), but ultimately decided that it wasn't a good fit. Exposure is more about showing than telling, with some light descriptive text for context.

imgix's founder and CEO (zacman85) replied in another comment with a few more details about why we use OS X for some things, but there's a lot more detail we could go into. We're thinking about exploring these kind of topics in more depth in future articles, and I hope you'll check them out.
