OpenBSD laptop for the paranoid

A personal account of why OpenBSD is used as a daily driver on Thinkpad X220 and Dell XPS 13 laptops. The three main reasons are security (secure by default, minimal attack surface, only two remote holes in the default install), stability (predictable 6-month release cycle, minimal update interruptions, syspatch for security fixes), and frugality (minimal codebase, audited code, no corporate influence, works on older hardware). Brief hardware compatibility notes are included, with a mention of future posts on installation and configuration.
