<humor> I've always found Ubuntu's use of artful nudes to be a little corny; whoever designed the branding strategy apparently didn't consider the reaction that someone .... slightly silly .... would have to it. "So, this is a desktop you can only use naked, right?" </humor> Now, more seriously... I wonder how those early desktop images and CD sleeves went over in international markets. *I* think they're tasteful and "arty" - in a few countries that I can think of, I would think they would not go over well *at all*. --elijah _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
