Hey peoples!

I have just been wondering about the security of debian verus the other "Secure"
OS's.  I am refering to OS's like OpenBSD, Immunix, and Adamantix.  I am new to
this area and I was wondering,

   1. What is the difference between more secure OS's and Debian?
   2. What are the security Advanatages of Debian versus more secure OS's?
   3. Why doesn't all open source strive to be "more" secure?
   4. What are the performance advantages of Debian versus more secure OS's?

Thanx!

Paul
