I also do not see any problems, except our logo.
I gave my old PC to my father and first thing he did
- he strip off all stickers with beastie that were on it.

... but I heard that Vatican use our OS and even

logo was on its web site for a while. I don't know
if this true, cause I didn't saw it by my own eyes.
