Seeking BSD or Linux Posters?

    As good as it gets.

      They are even more than sweet; check also out
      the clothes, they are made from very good material,
      they don't get damaged soon (or by washing).

      Wim Vandeputte (European distributor) is also nice,
      even if he's sometimes quite backlogged.

  3. Magazine Ads. by reaper20 · · Score: 4, Funny

    I'm cheap, so I usually hang up some of the funnier ads from the linux mags. "Hello Mr. Gates, I'll be your server today!" from Penguin Computing is pretty cool. The Sun one is kind of neat too, "What Windows has done for your network, the Sun LX50 undoes". Heh.

      "Hello Mr. Gates, I'll be your server today!" That's cool. You can find the picture here.

    What do you need pre-printed posters for? Just spool out your favourite man/info pages, grab some electrical tape and...ta da!

  6. for cryin' out loud by Twirlip+of+the+Mists · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Weeping Jesus on the cross, dude. Go to any shopping mall and find one of those stores that sells posters and paintings. Find a nice landscape that you like. Buy it for a few bucks and hang it on your wall.

    It is not necessary for you to eat, sleep, breathe, and stare at computer shit all day long. In your place of work, surround yourself with things unrelated to work. In my office, I used to have a framed 24" x 36" print of a vintage poster from the Egyptian board of tourism, in French. It was great; exotic and soothing at the same time. Whenever I wanted, I could glance up from my monitor and see something completely unrelated to computers in any way. It was like a thirty second micro-vacation. Only thing that kept me sane during the dark days as the company-- a software startup-- was spiraling down the drain.

  7. shameless advertising by leiz · · Score: 3, Informative

    We have some leftover posters from this year's Southern California Linux Expo.

    If you'd like one, they're available at a more than reasonable price, just ask.

    ... situations like this are why God invented attractive woman, italian sports cars, and the Grand Canyon. For the love of everything good and nice to stare at, please put any of these on your wall instead of a cartoon penguin or devil thingie.

    Don't blow it, or somebody might make up a comical poster about the chances of you losing your virginity and put it on their wall.

    Don't blow it.
