Wow, if that's your take on it, then maybe you should. A logo isn't an OS. If someone somewhere can misinterpret Beastie, is it our fault or theirs? Here's the answer: it doesn't matter. A logo shouldn't, for whatever reason, good or bad, be part of anyone's decision on what OS to install. If supplementing Beastie with a different logo brings more users to FreeBSD, then it's a no-brainer. -- Jared Earle :: http://www.23x.net jearle@gmail.com :: There is no SPORK
