Sun Microsystems Logo - Design and History

Sun Microsystems (Sun Microsystems, Inc.) is a computer, computer component designer, and software manufacturer founded in 1982 and headquartered in Santa Clara, California. Sun Microsystem's Solaris operating systems and their servers are well renowned.

Sun's logo, features four interleaved copies of the word sun, was designed by professor
Vaughan Pratt, of Stanford University. The initial version of the logo had the sides
oriented horizontally and vertically, but it was subsequently redesigned so as to appear
to stand on one corner.

This is probably one of my favourite logos. You find variations of the logo in terms of the
colour combinations but its either white text on a purple background or purple text on
white background, but you may find other variations.
