She's the "Super Cow" indeed. It's almost surely a naif joke, maybe originated on some Kuro5hin forum. The cow looks different from that of the old famous "cowsay" [1] Perl script included in Debian since 2001 (but is this really a well-shaped cow[2]?). I do suppose "Have you mooed today?" loosely relates to Microsoft's "Where do you want to go today?" motto. APT (and dpkg) is in fact a powerful tool that made Debian distribution better. Anyway, I don't know who is the creator of APT cow and easter egg. The CVS might help to find it! ([3] is noteworthy too...)
