eeg3 writes "NewsForge has a review of OpenBSD 3.5. It encompasses a fair amount of information, more specifically it details security, cryptography, installation, and new features."

    "The BSDs tend to lack the hardware support of Linux too and other things that just make Linux
    nicer for desktops."

    Let me think of how to put this in a nice way...

    BZZZZZZZZT! Try again. BSD usually the hardware before Linux has it, off the top of my head I can think of USB2 and FireWire.

    Happy trolling!
