I wonder why. Im trying not to say it, Im really trying not to, ok im gonna say it, maybe its cuz microsoft finally realized that genuince microsoft software doesnt work and theyve begun stealing the software everyone else stole from them in the first place and improved? oh wait jk sry couldnt resist. . . how bout that old windows 3.1 logo that one was cool i just cant quite remember what it looked like, just that it was cool XD

and I just realized I misunderstood the question I thought who wanted to go halfsies on an outdated trademark not just who wanted in (someone knock me over and roll me in the mud) but my answers still the same, still windows 3.1, that was back when it was so simple there was nothing that could go wrong. anything more modern and it would have to be the linux Penquin. :D
