Upgrade was smooth as butter, as always :)

Do you folks choose OpenBSD over FreeBSD because of its enhanced security or are there other reasons to recommend it for folks looking for an alternative to Linux?

It's clean and simple and does what I need it to do.

I use to use FreeBSD 20 years ago, but when OpenBSD dumped Linux emulation, I decided to try it and it worked out fine for me. Plus I find networking much simpler with hostname.* and join.
