That's "Even OpenBSD can be hacked.  *Trust me*" and OpenBSD is a far
sight more secure out of the box than any Linux distro.  It's my
choice (when I have one) for a firewall/VPN -- and I happen to find pf
much more friendly (and bandwidth restricting is even easier than in
Linux, although that's not saying much).
