the goal of a logo is to be memorable, not just "look good"

I remember it looked terrible and unmemorable. Really, if you asked me 5 minutes ago to draw it I’d be unable to. I only remembered it was some sort of ugly use of the NeXT characters.

Apparently people’s response to it is polarizing. I always thought it was a ridiculously bad logo.

the fact that you can even remember its shape and ugly colors is remarkable, considering this is a product that was never widely used and hasn't been sold since 1997

I didn’t remember its shape or colors. Did I say otherwise?
