However, that doesn't mean there isn't an infinite number of possibilities in modifying the existing one: something as simple as a one-run animated GIF that has a gleaming reflection running the outside border of the logo would be enough to signal "change" without having people scream in horror, "oh, my God, Microsoft(R) just bought PHP!" -- </Daniel P.
