Spec the graphic, provide whatever clip-art that anyone could see
incorporating, and the logo will come.  Right now, there's a big
barrier to entry (it's like Dilbert talking to the marketing people
about the GruntMaster 6000 or the underwater barbecue).  We want it
a bit edgier, with pizazz, and does it have to be an operating system?
