A lot of companies wait till most of their stores have been completed. Comet seemed to have a different logo on TV ads to the store when I used to go past for very long time.

Llyods TSB is using different logo onscreen to it's new look as well.

Apollo 2000 an electrical store based primarily in the midlands is now simply branded Apollo, a rebrand which I think it's fair to say is long overdue.

The slightly amended logo can be viewed here: http://www.apollo2000.co.uk/.

They've been owned by Hughes Electrical for the past few years, the logo of which reminds me of Tandy.

I've not seen any mention of the new British Gas logo

It's been on the vans for a while. I've a feeling it hasn't gone unnoticed on here as well.

Anyway nice enough modernisation.

i imagine they were done under the trade description act - a domino's "pizza" is after all an expensive piece of cheese on toast with extra grease.

May I be the first to say that I have no strong feelings about this? I don't know whether it's a feature of Segoe or an echo of the italic logo, but I dislike the touching "ft" - to my eye, it looks like the kerning is off. Otherwise, I'm unmoved.

Bland. And I thought they were getting rid of the four coloured flag/window thing? Why bring it back in the corporate logo... inconsistent or what.

I'm guessing that each colour in the logo represents a product (blue is Windows, green is Xbox, red is Office, yellow is… something).

If that's the case then it's not particularly future-proof.

That looks very dated to me.
