New .NET logos have been announced. Check out the new logo for Microsoft .NET :
and the vertical type
But why the change ? The original .NET logo was designed just before Forum 2000. It was designed to be attached to other Microsoft brands as a suffix. The result was a logo that did not stand well on its own and lacked impact.
We needed a logo that was in sync with the key values that we want .NET to stand for: consistency, robustness and great user experiences. We also wanted a logo that conformed to the design principles that are driving Microsoft’s brand identity evolution and is reflected in newer brands such as Silverlight, Surface and more. Finally, we needed a logo that is more strongly aligned with the portfolio of brands that .NET is most strongly aligned with: Silverlight, Visual Studio and our server products.
btw this is the earlier logo of .NET

I think the new logo is too abstract. Just a bunch of wavy lines in the shape of an N. Pretty boring. At least the Silverlight logo "looks" cool, and even has animation.
