I like it except for a couple small things:

 - the final image w/ the complete logo should last a couple of more 
   frames so there's a chance to read it;  this is easy enough to fix, 
   just take the xcf image and duplicate the last layer say 5 more times 
   (I actually did that to your xcf file)

 - the text on the URL is too small to read easily (at least at 
   1280x1024 with my eyes)  :-)  ;this is a little harder to deal with

Otherwise, great job.  I had envisioned something similar, but 2
computers, Beastie zaps them and the cable in between them swells as
FreeBSD in big text zaps back and forth between them, then fade out to
FreeBSD - the Power to Serve.  Of course I have the actual artistic talent
of a groundhog so I had a hard time implementing my idea.  :-)
