    The big tux needs larger eyes; right now they're small in proportion and it looks bad.

    No cheap-looking penguins please. People
    will think Linux is cheap too (in the bad sense).
    Same goes for conferences/expos.

    Rad/hip/alternative is OK. But please make things
    look like "quick hacks"/"don't care"/"at your own risk"/"you can't make money with Linux".

    If this were a Linux-only expo, I'd be saying, "What the hell are they doing here. Get the hell out unless you actually plan on allowing Linux users to print!"

    Lexmark doesn't even deserve to be within sight of anything Linux.

    Can you tell I'm bitter that the Lex 5700 is Windows-only and Lex won't release the programming info?

    So is Alan the one with the beard? If so he
    looks like a looser. Some of you people really
    need to know how to get a life and leave your
    computer once and awhile. I mean I don't have
    problem getting sex from attractive women but
    I bet Alan there does. And notice I said
    attractive.

    I'm sure he is....but looser than what? Was he supposed to be tight? Or are you just a semi-literate moron who thinks that everyone in the world should look and act the same?

    OK, that's a bit harsh, but c'mon: this is the Internet. Is there really a good excuse for having such a tiny mind?
