I like that.
Also, even though it would require getting the rights via the Rich Imbeciles and Assholes of America, do a TV spot with a hard rock, almost punk version of "Blowing In The Wind".
Show windows crashing, and then show Linux, Mac OS, et cetera. and it running perfectly. show screenshots of windoze product activation, and cops showing up at someone's house while they're installing xp.
How many times must the system go down (show crashes and BSODS)
Before you can call it a flop? (show people looking shocked and disgusted)
How many viruses must your box have (show magazine and newspaper articles about viruses)
Before you can call it sick? (show norton AV running)
And how many years must the four-color-flag fly (show Windows logo)
Before we can all move ahead? (show an XP CD being shot and exploding)
The answer my friend (show quick screenshots of LInux, intermixed with LInus and Tux)
Is blowing in the wind (Mac OS X and the Apple logo)
The answer is blowing in the wind. (Organization name, logo, and slogan in white on a black b/g)
Pissed_Macman:
BCBE sounds good. Our logo would have to be simple, something that a lot of people would recognize, like McDonalds' golden arches or Nike's check mark. I don't have any ideas, but I'm thinking.
Pantso:
A simple logo should do it and the idea of an "open door" or something similar sounds good. Simple logos are also a lot catchier. Well, what are we waiting for?
xyle_one:
im sketching as i write this. i will play with a few styles and post the results soon. i actually just made an aqua style tux. looks cool ;)
zooloo:
I like OpenOpen. Refers to the product - OSS. Cool.
BCBE is a problem as www.bcbe.com is not legible. And if you say it nobody will understand what you say.
A commando Tux is a good use of Tux.
Open door logo - ++good and appropriate for OpenOpen.

PS. Michael Moore, Stupid Whire Men (Thanks Calum) - he talks about students getting elected to the school board or something like that.
Is information for students/campus a way to go? Point out money to MS is money away from THEM.
Please read Stupid White Men and this might make more sense
