It's a mistake to make this association.

OpenBSD people chose "security" as an argument to describe what the OS 
is. It's true and I believe it can attract more users, but on the other 
side, people seem to think OpenBSD is ONLY used when you need security, 
like a firewall, router, etc.

OpenBSD is a GENERIC OS which can be used to do _almost_ every task a 
computer system is able to.

Teers,
