"Yesterday OpenBSD, the proactively secure Unix-like operating system, released version 3.8, featuring several improvements to networking, RAID management tools, and increased security. At openbsd.org you can download installation files or order the official three-disc CD set, which supports 16 processor architectures out of the box. I took this new release as an opportunity to perform my first ever OpenBSD install." Read more here.

Well, since OpenBSD is 100% free, marketing is out of the question. Based on the fact that there hasn't been a root exploit going on 9 years now means that it is extremely secure. How much more secure it is over linux really depends on which aspect and which distro.
