A Genius Icon

Well, I'm not fan of proprietary stuffs and try to avoid writing about them. Yet, I came across a brilliant work when I was looking at this article about Snow Leopard new extra large icons. Of course it's the never getting old campaign of Apple bashing Windows for its stupid bugs in a genius icon, indicating a Windows host on a network. :)



I guess similar icons could be shipped on stock GNU/Linux distributions to add a little more fun.

Get the latest version from Subversion repository:

svn checkout http://masood.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/yaml-language-spec
