you are missing the whole point.. in the shadow the daemon didn't HAVE
to be drawn perfectly, and each person could see his own ideas..
sort of like how we treat Freebsd :) 

I know what the problem is.. 
YOU'RE AMERICANS!

shadowing out a section of ground is a far easier job than
drawing in a fifelike daemon....

I think the shadow it great, and sure it's a nice step for Un*x
but to elevate a PC to running it.. THAT's a Huge Leap!
