There are people who are capable of finding bugs cute, but many others have a visceral repulsion to anything with an exoskeleton. I'm just trying to compare these proposals to the existing OS mascots that are out there: Puffy (cute li'l pufferfish), Beastie (cute li'l "daemon"), Tux (cute[1] li'l penguin), whatever the Minix raccoon is called... do I see a pattern here? And then we have this thing that looks like a robot bug devil. Beastie may look like a devil too, but at least he's a *cute* devil... [1] Until you notice his resemblance to Homer Simpson. -- A Dog
