I like your idea very much!

I still think using the Tux logo http://www.isc.tamu.edu/~lewing/linux/
http://lwn.net/Gallery/ (some history http://www.sjbaker.org/tux/) would
be best. I even found a picture which comes close to my first thoughts
when I proposed the matrioshka-penguin idea:
http://sjbaker.org/tux/penguins1.png
My first idea was something like this:
(sorry, symbolic ASCII graphic only - I don't have any artistic skills)
big Tux bottom big tux head big server(mainframe?)
little smaller tux bottom little smaller tux head small server
next next new PC
next next new laptop
next next old PC
small complete Tux old laptop
To combine both ideas, maybe the small Tux can sit on a speeding turtle,
having the old laptop in his wings. As icon I would like the small Tux
on the turtle, or only the speeding turtle.
Best regards,
