I converted my road bike into a fixie when the rear derailleur broke and I couldn't afford to fix it (college days). It worked fine for the flat, semi-rural, Michigan roads.
The simplicity is appealing, but I would never claim that riding a fixie has any advantages over a geared bike.
I guess there are quite a few parallels to driving an old Porsche.
