That is so funny!

People spent years arguing about the BSDie daemon image and how it causes
misunderstandings, etc and so they had a contest to choose an official 
logo (BSDie was no a logo, many claimed.  He is just a mascott).  

Well, the sex toy is what FreeBSD ended up with as logo with BSDie daemon
retained as the mascott.   More people still identify with the BSDie daemon 
doll and still use it on their web pages, etc.
But, the sex toy is currently the official logo - as much as anything is
official with FreeBSD.

So, now we can have numerous long threads complaining about how 
the sex toy is a bad image for FreeBSD and causes misunderstanding.

If I could draw, I would have offered an alternative, but such is 
not my fortune.

Have fun y'all.
