If you're wanting the system to be untouched for two years, set openbsd
aside. If you don't understand what I mean, read their FAQ again and
hunt up their support policy and read carefully the instructions on
security patches and on updates and upgrades.

OpenBSD is a great OS, and I recommend learning it and using it, but the
pace is pretty stiff, especially until you get used to it.
