From my FAQ:
Quote:
I want to test an application. Why isn't it already installed on the CD?

There are 4559 3rd party applications ported to OpenBSD for 4.3-release. If I'd installed Application X, someone would ask about Application Y. These ISOs were not designed to be application testbeds, nor were they designed to be production systems. They were designed to let you play with the OS, and, if you are interested in OpenBSD as a desktop, to try out some popular X desktop management environments.
For 4.4, due to popular demand, I have replaced Dillo with Firefox for the Basic, Fluxbox, and XFCE images. To do this, alone, stretches the limits of a 700 MB CD for XFCE.
