As stated in the slashdot article cited previously, Unisys does feel free
to go after some web sites whose GIFs are created by "certain freeware
programs," especially if they're commercial sites.  It was sure comforting
to see that the Unisys rep interviewed for the article hadn't even heard
of the GIMP.
