Heh... This gives me an idea... How about FreeBSD "skins." The=20 Beastie as the default (of course), and dis_ey-type themes for=20 the "weak in the faith". If FreeBSD's attempt is not to be=20 offensive to anyone, anywhere, anytime, then perhaps it just=20 needs to jump into a different skin for everybody (corporate or=20 otherwise) it serves... Perhaps a questionare to be filled out=20 in the beginnings of sysinstall would let the system know what is=20 to be considered "appropriate." (hey... anythings possible) :) Mike
