What do you guys think about it? (http://news.cnet.com/8301-10805_3-57498981-75/microsoft-squares-off-with-new-logo/?part=rss&tag=feed&subj=News-Microsoft)

Me, personally, I don't know what to say... I can only assume they are tryin' to put it in the same vein for their more simpler logos on Office and Hotmail products.

I wasn't fully fond of it at first, but after seeing it on their site, and having a chance to get used to it, I think it's a good logo for them. Its sorta boring, but they aren't really an exciting company who specializes in one area, so I think it fits them well

their old logo despite being more unique, was starting to look really dated, so I think it's a good change.

I preferred the old one, this one looks too trendy I feel.

They tried to give it some sort of hipster vibe, but it just came out boring.


Microsoft is such a boring company. Even the Xbox department is becoming boring.

It looks like they made it in the 90's and forgot about it for 20 years before going "Now how did THAT get in there?" and put it forward to Bill Gates as an "Innovative Brand New Logo!"

Just realised that is Calibri font....oh Microsoft...why change the font to something even more duller?
