It's a shame not to port OpenBSD on a Raspberry PI. I would like to a make a cheap firewall router box at home with this. The network card and the CPU is as better as an ISP box but it's more flexible. That's the cheapest solution for homing firewall, and we can add an USB wireless tool to get WiFi working with Raspberry, and add some boxes functionnalities like NFS shares, with the other USB plug.
