Using OpenBSD on the desktop</a>, NewsForge, April 21, 2006 |
|
</strong></font><br> |
|
Considers the use of OpenBSD as a desktop operating system, |
|
starting with "Secure by default" - who wants to have their desktop hacked? - |
|
and continues: |
|
"OpenBSD's clean code and design also provide rock-solid stability. |
|
I used to have lots of problems and crashes with new versions of |
|
Linux (kernel 2.6.x) and FreeBSD (versions 5.x and 6.x). The main |
|
focus of OpenBSD developers is to provide programs that work ... |
|
[they] prefer to improve their code rather than just |
|
add more new features and end up with a bloated and unstable product." |
|
Covers X, ports/packages, window managers, what is and is not supported, |
|
and more. Final thought: |
|
"OpenBSD's clean design and remarkable stability, along with its |
|
proactive security, not only make OpenBSD a potential candidate for |
|
home desktop users but also every system administrator's dream come |
|
true for business environments." |
