What happens to OpenBSD when Secure Boot becomes manditory?
Please read those articles again, "Secure Boot" is *not* mandatory
for Windows 10. The major change is that for Windows 8 Microsoft
*required* hardware vendors to provide a setting to disable Secure
Boot. To be certified for Windows 10, the hardware is no longer
required to have this setting.
So no one is being forced to make Secure Boot mandatory. If some
hardware vendors choose not to include a way to turn it off they'll
simply lose some business. At worst this creates new opportunities
for vendors interested in PC sales for Linux, BSD, etc...

Pretty sure the sky _is_ falling, I know a guy whose cousin saw a piece
of it on the sidewalk yesterday.
