I just suggested this for the little sticker that you can replace the 
vendor sticker on your case with.  I wasn't trying to emulate Intel, I 
just wan't people who see my "PC" to look at it as something more than 
a DOS/Windows machine.  Something as subtle as a little daemon will
draw attention as well as fill the empty sticker spots on all my cases! :-)
"Daemon inside" is short and appropriate for what I'm trying to say, "I run
BSD on my PC."
