If Gary is still around and wants to sell official prints I (and I’m sure many others) would buy one! Edit: looks like Unitech Software actually holds the copyright

At the bottom of the article (I think added later but not sure) there is a part about being able to get signed originals. It looks like they are (as of right now) still available as that part is yet to be stricken trough.

A few tenuous ones it seems not mentioned yet. The title "UNIX MAGIC" is arguably on a banner(1). The wall(1) visible through the window. (On NetBSD there was also a window(1) utility.) The peak visible through the window in the distance could be mount(1) ________. And of course, there is a man(1) visible through the window. The prominent display of the wizard's fingers, as in finger(1), in the foreground is probably…

Hahaha, that seems to be true, I've been surprised by the enthusiastic response. Sorry for the delayed replies, everyone. For anyone still interested: I can print a bit larger than A2 format: 43x65cm, the cost is around 4 euro for a print on glossy 190g/m2 epson photo paper or 11,1 euro for Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308g/m2 matte paper (that one is expensive but really good). Edit: yes, I'd be happy to print the poster fo…

As a little update: the 12 meters of Hahnemühle Photo Rag I had are gone now (until Friday, then I can print on it again). In the meantime you can get it printed on Hahnemühle Daguerre Canvas 400g/m2. Same price, real canvas with a distinctive texture. You either like it or not: https://www.hahnemuehle.com/en/digital-fineart/fineart-media... Anyway, thanks for all your kind words and little stories!

A bit of a reply to all who wrote me: prints go out around May 12, as I had to order some packaging and wait for it to arrive. Also, if you haven't got a message from me, please check your spam folder!

P.S. this is how it looks printed on Hahnemühle Daguerre Canvas (colors are a bit more saturated irl): https://rybakov.com/files/unix1.jpg https://rybakov.com/files/unix2.jpg https://rybakov.com/files/unix3.jpg
