I would say for the purpose of learning, and entertainment. I actually want to write an OS also, for myself, and anyone who wants it. I don't expect it to be used, I just want to write it to learn. I know that I'm eons away from being able to write an actual OS, though, so while I'll keep studying, I doubt I'll do anything about that ambition for a while.
