They are the reason we all have OpenSSH. Without that, Unix/Linux/BSD (as we know it today) would be much less secure. 4.9 CDs may be pre-ordered now: &lt;a href=&quot;http://openbsd.org/orders.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://openbsd.org/orders.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;You won&apos;t find a simpler, cleaner Unix anywhere.</text></comment>

One thing that bothers me though: why? I mean, why wouldn&apos;t they do it with any linux distribution? It would probably require less work, less custom tools (like these apps for automatic network configuration or scripts for automounting usb drives they mention), and with some security patches/kernel configurations it should give a similar security level OpenBSD does.&lt;p&gt;Or am I missing something?</text></comment>
