I like how Apple handles their windows logo. It's reminiscent of Windows
without infringing on their copyright or trademarks. For example, I copied
it to use for a VirtualMachine link on my desktop:
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Boot+Camp+Logo+SVG?content=56439

Obviously it's not that popular ;) but I thought maybe this could be an idea
starter.. :)

Thanks
