The question is how you OpenBSD guys handle the upgrade issue. From
the website I learned that -STABLE is maintained for only one year (=

recommended, does that mean one needs to upgrade the entire OS every
half year? I couldn't get that from the website.
Of course, simply swapping out harddrives with an upgraded
installation is another possibility.

I second that motion. GENERIC allows for you to build and test on
*whatever* hardware and then with minimal changes plug the hdd into the
new machine and you're off running.
Disk arrays cause a bit of a cluster in this theory, but still a
workable solution and a lot better than downtime.
