Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-chat@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I just got the latest Walnut Creek catalog, and I noticed that the same old picture of the FreeBSD desktop is used (on page 8). It's a nice desktop and all, but it's quite gray... and dull.. Compare it to the Linux desktop on page 4 - they've got a fractal and a guy witha shotgun running around, all in wild colors! If I were shopping for a Free unix, I'd definately take far more notice to the Linux layout.. So, I propose a new desktop - one that's more alive, yet looks more professional than the in your face Linux pic.. I'm sure someone must have a great looking desktop!
