I see this as the major "drawback" of using OpenBSD almost exclusively. You expect systems to be this high standard, and when they don't (which is often), your patience can become limited when even the most basic things on other systems is just a pain in the ass to get it working. Speaking of OpenBSD in the work place, the shitty attitude of some "engineers" is something to be concerned also. The kind of people who dismiss solid (but unknown to them) solutions but bang their heads against a wall on a 15-year tutorial found on an abandoned blog to get something to work is everywhere. -- db
