Potential Plex86 Logo

Disclaimer: I am not an artist (obviously). The following images are
public domain, except for the Larry Ewing's requirement that I
acnowledge that he created the original penguin, and that we both used
The GIMP extensively.

The Concept

Although I like several of the logos that have been submitted for Plex86
so far, none of them really attempt to convey what Plex86 is or what it
does.

So here is my idea. Take it or leave it. Feel free to shamelessly rip it
off if you like, although I'd be glad to help out if someone wants any
of the original "artwork" that I created for this entry.

A couple of other things: 

 1. This is obviously not a complete Logo. The "Plex86" title is almost
    unreadable. I would suggest combining this image with just about any
    other Logo contest winner.

 2. An obvious (and probably better) extension of this idea would be to
    make an animated GIF and have the image in the monitor rotate
    between the supported virtual machine OS's, with perhaps a BSOD or
    BIOS image thrown in as jokes.

 3. Another obvious extension would be to have Tux get replaced by the
    *BSD Daemon and other host OS logos in an animated loop, preferably
    out-of-sync with the virtual machine OS loop so that you can display
    all the possible combinations.
