Not to be confused with Unicorn, the Rack web server, which I'm pretty sure had the name first :/

http://unicorn.bogomips.org

Would it be gratuitously negative of me to point out that I wish projects would stop doing this?




And before that there was the Unicorn text editor & dictionary: http://www.quasillum.com/software/unicorn.htm

And there's also the Unicorn Control Software: http://www.gelifesciences.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Cate...

The reality is that if you choose an existing word, chances are it's already being used.


Perhaps the name CPUnicorn would also be more descriptive?


Let's just change the name to Firebird. Worked for Mozilla.


you remind me that Microsoft used to try to ban the name "Windows". pathetic, isnt it??
