Well the penguin is the mascot of Linux.  Story goes Linus Torvald the
creator of Linux liked penguins.  And they had a logo competition in
which the penguin you see on the Linux boot screen is Tux.  

Not sure why ipeng uses a penguin, he may have an explanation on his
website.

Indeed. And no, it has nothing to do with Linux.

 Actually, the _true_ story is more prosaic, or is it?
 
 When I started experimenting with streaming clients (not yet the
 Squeebeox back then, I came to the Squeezebox because of it's remote
 control capabilities) I always said that I want an iPhone without the
 Phone for remote control. Now an iPhone without a Phone is an i,
 which is pronounced like the German word for egg and that was always
 my code name for the original skin.
 
 Then when I found others might want to use it, too, I needed an icon
 and egg sounded like it fits a bird and then - my graphics skills are
 really, really limited - I checked the icons I have around here and
 there was the one with my penguin et voilĂ 
 And iPeng really _looks_ so much like iPhone and iPod and all
 of this which is also kind of cool.

Thanks pippin. Great story!
