I am pretty sure they have https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/new-tektronix-logo/msg857474/?topicseen#msg857474
Edit, I agree it is up there with KS for a bad logo.
Whoah! Watch where that landed we might need it later.

I didn't think I could possibly be the first! (I don't read that forum...)  :)

"The legacy Tektronix logo has been refashioned, with the angle incorporated within the logotype as an upwards gesture of progress. The sans-serif type is given character by subtly clipping the 'T' letterforms, echoing the blue angle. Simple, definitive lines reflect our promise of performance."

 :-DD

Well, at least now Tek has a logo that is appropriate to their dire product offerings.  :-+

You know, that writing style sounds very similar to how the audiophools advertise their crap.

http://www.tweekgeek.com/ct-1-ultimate-reference-helix-power-cord/?gclid=COSC8NLktcoCFYEfHwodCYcHDw

"I have had the privelege of having 2 of these cords in my system, and I can say with confidence that these cords will allow your component to reveal inner detail, subtlety, transparency, dynamics, you name it, they can do it like you've never heard before. Spooky detail and holography, revealing information that you have never heard on your most familiar recordings will have you glued to your listening chair for endless hours.

Timbres and decays were so natural, so lifelike, I just could not believe this much information was on the recording and I had never heard it before.

The CT-1 Ultimate Helix is no musical scalpel. It expertly extracts more musical information than any other power cable and allows your system to play with emotion unlike anything you have heard before.

Only $12,900? They could get a lot more than that from those idiots that buy that stuff.  :-//
I told my friends I could teach them to be funny, but they all just laughed at me.

With that new logo - they deserve all the hangers-on that call them Textronix...!
The new slash across the X allows ambiguity to creep in for casual observers.
Of course if they can't spell anyway - Tectronics is as good as it gets!
Don't ask a question if you aren't willing to listen to the answer.

Look at the picture with one stuck on the CD tray!  :wtf:

It should say "I paid $99.95 for this and all I got was this lousy sticker"

They can't possibly be serious. Reading these product descriptions, they sound so condescending. The claims are so ridiculous they read like audiophile sarcasm. The blatant disregard comes across so vividly its painful. Wow.

But have you listened to them?  :-DD

That's the typical response you get from those who rave about such products.

Hello,
well, I was always a sucker for typrographic design...but tbph, it does not look bad.

Nice, minimalist, slanted. If they, now, manage to spruce up the design of their scopes. Sorta like that Olympus DSLR mockup which never made it to the market...
