OpenBSD 4.1 has been released. "We are pleased to announce the official release of OpenBSD 4.1. This is our 21st release on CD-ROM (and 22nd via FTP). We remain proud of OpenBSD's record of ten years with only two remote holes in the default install. As in our previous releases, 4.1 provides significant improvements, including new features, in nearly all areas of the system."

Why on earth would you compile KDE or GNOME on OpenBSD? They provide binary packages synced with the ports tree (I'm lookin squarely at you FreeBSD) for a reason. Hell they even have packages for users running -CURRENT. I personally run OpenBSD on both my workstations and my laptop, and you won't here any complaints from me.

How is it now, is the installation easy now or anything?
And is it any good on a Laptop? I know it's great on the server but what about Desktops or Laptops?
Its still a server platform primarily. You can make it into a desktop OS, but if you didn't like the installation, you surely won't like compiling KDE or Gnome. I haven't installed 4.1 yet, but I'm sure that it's very similar to the previous releases. Thats is one thing that they are very good at, consistency. I'm gonna go show my support and buy my copy today. I think anyone else that has a few buck to spare should do the same. Great job Theo and company!
