What do people think about other vms logos?

I know we have the spirally thing that vsi I believe cleverly added x86 to but I was thinking more along the lines of a creature that people would associate vms by

THE V|M|S logo I think is good but it's mostly only recognizable to those who were already familiar with the old DIGITAL wording 

I know we have the shark but it looks dated and rather menacing actually, the way some of the configuration stuff is in vms the shark in it's current form might be misinterpreted as something biting you in he arse lol

Linux has the penguin and lots of opensource stuff has animals like hadoop and it's elephant etc

Should we revamp the shark and make him more friendly or pick another animal?

The Phoenix is nice but it still is associated with something rising from the ashes so I'm not totally convinced it's the best mascot going forward

I like Athena as a symbol but the owl isn't my choice, it's lacking the strength part

Hermes is another with a great meaning and Zeus as the lightning bolt is a bit too simplistic

I guess my research into family crsts of late has got me thinning about logo's etc for vms

What do you think would be some good ones ?
