Lamest Technology Mascots Ever

[HardOCP News]

Wired has posted a list of the fifteen lamest technology mascots…ever. I think Jeeves and Clippy were obvious choices but I’m not real sure about having Tux the penguin on the “lame” list.

Creatures such as Tux the penguin have become bizarrely treasured icons, while others, such as recent roadside-autopsy subject Jeeves, are better off in the hereafter. And some, such as the freakishly terrifying jester touting Adobe's new Creative Suite 3, are an indication that vector-based illustration software should probably come with consumer warning labels, just like those found on drugs, circular saws and guns.

I wanna jam Clippy into one of the Windows Search dog's eyes.

I don't think Adobe's jester should count... it's just freaky art and from what i've seen they're not slapping him on the front of the CS3 box.

Tux? Why? Kandalf and Wilber are far lamer than Tux is.

At least they don't have the BSD Daemon, which I can shamefully say is my favorite of computing mascot.

The Glenda rabbit was the fugliest thing I have EVER seen.
