    First two sentences:

    Canadian opening
    For now ten years the municipality publishes every six months a new OpenBSD version around Theo de Raadt - now release 4.0.
    Into the year 1994 the roots of OpenBSD go back.

    And the conclusions/ratings are also pretty good:

    ix-valuation
    [+] strictly sourceopen system
    [+] fast installing
    [+] Upgrade support
    [+] multicolored hardware pallet
    [-] for Umsteiger habituation-needily

    The last two sentences are priceless!

      I like your translation, but the actual meaning of the last two sentences is more like

      [+] runs on many different hardware platforms

      [-] people who switch [to openbsd] will need to get used to it

      Ta!

            Yeah. But I've yet to talk a dev into porting to the DS Lite. Granted I've only offered to buy one for one dev. :D
