I am a happy customer of Enterprise WS. If I may argue for keeping 'bouncingcow': I am a 49-year-old guy who has made a career in software engineering. I've worked for some big names (Pixar and DEC to name two), and feel confident that I am qualified to offer an expert opinion on what is professional in our industry. With due respect to Steven Garrity, and without claiming that my opinion carries anymore weight than his or that of any other expert, I judge the bouncing cow to be professional. Now regarding 'wacky': I share the characterization that the bouncing cow is wacky. However, I don't agree that said characterization is per se grounds for dropping a screensaver. Without opening a debate on 'good wacky' versus 'bad wacky', I will say only that when others have walked by my computer and took note of the cow bouncing away on the monitor, they have without exception shown appreciation for it. My simple point here is that the cow is well liked out here in this corner of customerland :-) And for the final prong of my argument, I offer a resounding "me too!" in response to Ethan Zimmerman's posting: Nooo! Don't take away my bouncing cow! Thank you, and moooo Rick Ace
