    hmm, Can anyone else picture the strings leading from Jordan's fingers to Steve Job's fingers. I mean cmon, does it really matter? Its like asking a friend to build you a bikeshed then bitching because they didn't do a good enough job.

    I think that it adds more character to freebsd than a stale, sterilized and bland OS.

    Then he has the balls to say that he likes a specific name.

    "If it's just used for kernel errors, I was pretty happy with the
    EDONTPANIC suggestion someone made earlier. :)

    - Jordan"

    Saving some face there Jordan? Good try bud.

    Ohh yeah, One more thing. Fix it yourself lazy ass.
