  2. I reckon the name is a stroke of genius:

    eeePC – Easy to learn, easy to work, easy to play.
    Easy PC
    Easy Peasy,
    Lemon Squeezy (just because it rhymes)

    As for the poor old lemon having negative connotations – whatever happened to the old saying “when life sends you lemons, make lemonade”?

  3. Found this out there:

    : : : Anyone know how this came to being? I was recently used in Austin Powers: Goldmember.

    : : Found that it should read “Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy”.

    : certainly “easy-peasy” has been around for 30+ years, I remember using it as a kid. the “lemon-squeazy” bit is less obvious – I think we used to say that as kids too. I’m almost wondering if it was from an old detergent advert.

    As a british Chef explained to me this very evenint, “what’s easier than squeezing a lemon” — look, it all rhymes, why think about it too much.

  4. Jon please reconsider the terrible name change! The community obviously has a great talent at making good looking logos (as seen on this page, and the wiki page), but I feel like their efforts are wasted when they are designing for such a rubbish name – like someone said previously “putting lipstick on a pig”.

    What happened to the list of names that were suggested previously?.. Rune, ION etc. Any one of those names would be better than “Easy Peasy”.

    As this is a community project, have a poll to see what the community thinks and THEN worry about making logos.

    Many thanks

  7. PMG pretty much said exactly what I think, the first one is way better for large communication and can be tuned/derived very easily.

    I like the fresh lemon touch of the last one, but it’s designed for website’s banners or small logos.

  8. I like the first one’s potential to be a good swag logo. On shirts, hats, decals, etc. But I think the 3rd has a more refined feel.

  12. In the American vernacular, LEMONS are only good for selling anything that is supposed to actually taste or smell like lemons.
    In the States, a “lemon” is any defective manufactured product – usually a car – sold fraudulently.
    Please, reconsider the word ‘lemon’ or its image when promoting an operating system.

    By the way, impressive design work.

  16. Wow! The 1st one looks pretty nice! I like the 3rd too… but I can’t get what the 2nd means… ?!

    Jon, will you choose the winner yourself, or will you ask the community via a poll or something like that (maybe after a pre-selection….) ?
