Friend of mine was over on the weekend - I was doing some jpg work..and he asked what software I was using - when I told him it's called the Gimp, he fell over laughing. His comment "what is it about Linux geeks that they pick these weird names" - even when I explained its origin it didn't help - He added "Ask a car maker (like Ford) whether model names (like Edsel) are important". And this stuff like "GNU is not Unix" drives me crazy. -- Cheers Frank -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFh0wC8Rvr3Tn207ARAqjVAJ9lhutrPZYuDmlTO8tVIw/holz9qwCfRIMI R9FldmS2pf1C0zFKucAX/nY= =h/PM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
