The fact that if you google image search the word 'penguin', half of the images that return have tux in them? It's as if the animal penguin and Linux are inseperable now.

If you average the first 100 hits for "penguin" from google images you get something which vaguely looks like tux:

If you average the first 100 hits for "penguin linux" it really looks like tux:

That's one of the coolest things I've seen on the web for quite some time.

That's ironic. I actually did a google search on "Microsoft", and half the images returned were of Bill Gates riding on top a huge "dodo" bird, slapping at it's rear and yelling, "Yee-haw! Yee-haw! Giddy-up, Vista! Giddy-up! Yee-haw!"...
