I think there is one, although it seems the reference has been removed
recently from the FTP login banner.

Pah, that's olds.  Look at the WWW server, there's indeed a picture.

Look at the picture, i think it looks boring enough to not demand more
than one of them. :-)  A great server is nothing that looks optically
interesting.

When i've first seen freefall last year, when it was still sitting in
a mini-tower case, it was really de-impressing.  David Greenman told
me: ``Well, you could probably call it "depressing".'' ;-)

The only really impressing `feature' of freefall is the red SCSI LED
that's continuously flickering.  Thanks to the people living in
various timezones of the earth, i suppose it's flickering the entire
day.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
