Beastie to another crap logo

Those technical criteria were NOT drawn out in community fashion.
They forgot one very important thing:
The logo must be historically significant.

As long as FreeBSD runs on some hardware, and people still use it,
it's surviving.
No doubt, but to some extent the enthusiasm of the volunteers that work
on the OS is a function of how many people they know to be using

Linux is a great case in point. What a pity that when people finally
