[mdlug] Penguins, start your engines!

[Michael S. Mikowski]

I threw 'em 20 bones from my PayPal account.  Maybe I'm a sucker...

I think the logo should be "LINUX", nothing else, for greatest 
visibility; however, Linux should really be promoted consistently for 
maximum "brand" recognition.  I wonder if there are guidelines for 
such?

As an aside, don't they have to check with Linus to see if they can even 
*use* this trademark?

Cheers, Mike
