Product description
The New Hampshire UNIX License Plate is produced as it was originally seen on Bill Shannon’s 280ZX. Bill was an engineer working on Unix at Digital Equipment Corporation and he registered his car with this vanity plate. Armando Stettner, an engineer with an interest in marketing was later inspired to create thousands of UNIX license plates that look significantly different but did consist of “Live Free or Die” and “UNIX” in the same white and green colors as the New Hampshire plate (and yes, we are producing the replica of that version of the plate as well). These plates became known as the ‘geek license plate’ and are found in programmers’ offices, universities, other countries, and even in the Smithsonian! All of this transpired from Bill Shannon’s New Hampshire vanity license plate.

I wrote to Bigamart's customer support and they accompanied the process of reshipping the item until it finally arrived. I felt a genuine effort to solve the problem till it was finally solved.
The package was here in Australia from England in a few days — so quick! Something was missing and they refunded it straight away. Pretty happy with these guys.
