Amiga Identity: The Boing Ball vs. Rainbow Check Mark

[amigakidd]

Amiga uses the Rainbow checkmark and the Boing Ball as its corporate identity logo. I like the checkered Boing Ball because it represents movement in the computer industry.
While others like a bitten apple, sitting penguin (homer simpson like), and a wispy window blanket remains static.

While the rainbow checkmark represented the color technology of the past Amiga, many computer companies (except Microsoft) are abandoning multiple colors (Apple is using single color logos). Even A-Inc is only using Boing Ball. The rainbow check looks nice on the Winuae icon.

Other Amiga-like spinoffs are using Butterflies and a Sexy Cat. Isn't it weird that Amiga logos are very unusual, yet interesting. Does this reflect the community as well?

Which do you like?
Rainbow Check or Boing Ball
and why?

PC game maker Amiga Inc doesn't represent movement in any direction.

I like the check because it's the real Amiga logo which appeared on actual Amiga products. The "A" logo is also acceptable.

I associate the rainbow check, the AMIGA italics lettering and even the chicken lips Commoodre logo with real, pleasurable hardware that actually shipped and allowed end users some enjoyment and utility. The boing ball logo is something I've come to associate with enterprises that have delivered little.

I always liked the Boing Ball logo.  I think the reason probably is that the first time I saw the bouncing Amiga ball Demo back in the mid eighties it just blew me away.  I had never seen anything like it on a computer screen.
