+Alternatives to LAMP, informit.com, June 2, 2006
+
+While "Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP" get most of the attention,
+there are alternatives to each that are, in some way, better.
+David Chisnal starts this article with a look at OS alternatives,
+and OpenBSD gets the most detailed coverage, including this:
+"When it comes to security, OpenBSD has a well-earned reputation
+as the operating system for the truly paranoid. The entire kernel
+and base system, including the OpenBSD fork of Apache, undergoes a
+constant auditing process. The OpenBSD attitude is that any bug is
+potentially exploitable, and when a bug is found by the auditing
+team the next step is to attempt to remove every single occurrence
+of that category of bug. This approach leads to an incredibly secure
+system." Also talks about our pioneering use of W^X and the
+"incredibly powerful and easy to configure" packet filter, pf.
