Security and difference of design philosophy. I run OpenBSD on one of my machines and I enjoy it. It has better software availability than I expected and it feels like a neater, more minimal system than Linuxes. Definitely falls into the "hobbyist computing" category rather than something I'd recommend for a practical use case, but it's fun.
