    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.

                  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...

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.

                                          I'll wait until I see it in action before I pass my final judgement, but it does seem rather bland. Though it might be a nice touch that it changes colour depending on which theme you pick, so you won't have a mismatched block of colour just sitting there.
