Very Computer

I really like the artwork on the FreeBSD CD that was distributed at USENIX.
Can anyone tell me who the artist was? I'd like to use it in a couple of
places and I'd like to get permission and maybe access to the original
artwork.

thanks.

The daemon artwork is copyright by Marshall Kirk McKusick. The latest CD
covers
(of the FreeBSD 3.1/3.2 CDs) are drawn by a small Dutch company, but I don't
know
what the copyright rules are of those images.
See: http://www.freebsd.org/copyright/daemon.html for more information on
the
copyright issues.

Actually this artwork is a bit different then the usual artwork seen
on CDs that come out of Walnut Creek. It's an older, much larger, looking
daemon sitting in front of a computer holding a bottle of ``pop''.
Since this was a CD that was only distributed at the USENIX technical
conference I wasn't sure who I should contact about the work.
