According to http://www.freebsd.org/art.html the image may be used
commercially if the consent to it's usage is given by Marshall Kirk
McKusick, the creator of the FreeBSD Daemon. This concerns art created
by Mr. McKusick. The daemon image at this website doesn't look like
anything created by McKusick. I'm not sure whether the images
themselves or the likeness of the daemon is what the copyright covers.
Maybe someone else can expand on this.

The image isn't "ours" as a corporation either. FreeBSD is a project
consisting of a team of organized volunteers.

If I were imp-computers, I'd personally be more afraid of violating
Best Buy(TM)'s trademark.

Cheers,
Jason
