Tux is THE mascot.

Recently, when it was learned that IDG decided to move the LinuxWorld show from New York to Boston in 2005, one of the Boston newspapers printed an interesting graphic. It was of a blue "Massachusetts Welcomes You" sign that appears on the highways at the state lines, these normally show a turkey to the left of the text. The picture printed in the paper, replaced the turkey with Tux. :)

Edward~It's quite an interesting article. I read about Tux and some other articles ..

You just have to luv little TUX, s/he's so cute!
I have always liked penguins. I saw one in Disneyworld when it opened in 1971. It was walking on a wall, I have a pic of my hubby talking to it. It was so cute. (& so was my hubby) :)
