Thanks for sharing, looks a great resource... I personally use OpenBSD on my
lappy,as a desktop OS and it works very well indeed (Thinkpad x230, 4GB ram and
128GB SSD).

Yes I though about it but I didn't care that much. My webcam don't work
on openbsd anyway. Can you make video calls?

I'd suggest installing Windows and since it is not an OpenBSD issue,
let M$ deal with that.

It looks like Skype can be used from Chrome as an extension added from the
web store. I haven't tried it.

So far he hasn't proven to be anything but an ass though.

I would say it depends.
1. What are your requirements
-Do you need to propriety programs like Skype?
Skype don't run on openbsd
-Do you need the latest software?
You might don't find the latest software on the ports. Of course you can
always port it if its open source on OpenBSD but its time
to config cwm. (Really cool to have all system up and
running in 60 mb RAM usage!!)

I don't think so, because OpenBSD does not care about desktop users.
In fact, the solely purpose of OpenBSD system is to make/build the next release.

You? No, I doubt it.
Me, it's pretty much all I use as a home desktop system.
But you didn't seem to want to give it a try to find out for yourself,
or define what you mean by a "desktop system"

To provide an example:
On my private desktops and laptops, i never ran anything else sin
Installing is not hard. It can be done in 15 min if you are comfortable
with UNIX.
Peruse this and enjoy: http://sohcahtoa.org.uk/openbsd.html#0

As long as you can type startx at the command prompt, then yes.
