Very kindly donated to me by Ale on the design team here at Canonical. Maverick, Rick for short, sits proudly on my desk. He joins the lovely plush Lynx from the last release. Incidentally you can buy your own Lynx as well and help save the Lynx from extinction with a donation to the SOS Lynx Foundation.
