      Anyone who uses the word reimagination is a massive wanker. Oops, I just did.

      So is anyone who uses the phrase it does not try to emulate faux-industrial design characteristics such as materiality (glass, wood, plastic, etc.). Oops.

                      Microsoft and Windows are all about putting technology in people's hands to empower them to find their own perspectives. Oh good grief. Buzzword bingo! I do not need, or look for, technology to empower me or to help me find my own perspective, whatever the heck that means. Marc

                        Orange and green are two of my favorite colors, and I happen to think that they go together well. In fact, I cruise bars at night with a green, glow-in-the dark redacted in my wallet while searching for young, impressionable Irish girls who are temporarily homeless and have nowhere to go at closing time. I really like orange...

                          That was so ugly that I just had to join, in order to post a response: "Good Lord, who let the Marketing morons out of the bar? I haven't seen a less interesting logo since CP/M was released. Kill it now, please!!!!" Does anyone know of a user-friendly distro of Linux? I'm not going to "upgrade" to Windows 8 - I've had enough of Microsoft's total disconnect from reality.

                                      It's a logo. I don't like it, I don't dislike it. Is it memorable (hang on while I go back and check)......... don't know, only time will tell.
