With which one are you *most* familiar? Use that one.
I *like* OpenBSD; it's installed in another partition on my laptop;
If I weren't using Slackware, I'd definitely be an OpenBSD user.
However, "secure by default" is not very useful if the admin can't
maintain it securely or has to do insecure things in order to use it.
