You must look at it in a positive way that represents FreeBSD like a sporting character that has a sporty attitude. Just observe the modern running shoes and it has a harpoon in its hand to signify being ready to attack all problems on the way. Linux has only a lazy penguin that does not seem to be doing anything except sitting on its behind. Hope this answers all questions about this matter Sign Richard Farnes On Saturday 20 November 2010 09:00:04 Da Rock wrote: > On 11/14/10 05:22, Chad Perrin wrote: > > On Sat, Nov 13, 2010 at 12:36:29PM -0500, Jerry McAllister wrote: > >> On Fri, Nov 12, 2010 at 07:08:51PM -0500, Chris Brennan wrote: > >>> Did you know... > >>> If you play a Windows 2000 CD backwards, you hear satanic messages, > >>> but what's worse is when you play it forward.... > >> > >> I like this one - though you could update if from W 2000 to a more > >> current one. > > > > I vote Vista. > > I vote Winblow$ 7.
