After 25 Years Microsoft Changed Logo | New Microsoft's Logo

In History of last 25 years, Microsoft changed his logo first time. New Logo have some Touchy look. The new logo made its debut Thursday on Microsoft's websites, as well as three of its stores in Boston, Bellevue and Seattle, which is located near the company's Redmond headquarters.

This is Microsoft's fifth logo since Bill Gates and Paul Allen founded the company 37 years ago. When it last changed its logo in 1987, Microsoft had been a publicly traded company for less than a year and boasted a market value of about $2 billion. It peaked at more than $600 million in 1999. Now, Microsoft's market value stands at $254 billion -- less than half of Apple's market value of $623 billion.

Just a few months ago they updated their Windows logo with a clean, crisp san-serif font called Segoe UI, and today they showed off their new Microsoft logo, which follows suit.

At the time, Microsoft was putting the finishing touches on the second version of its Windows operating system. Two of Microsoft's biggest nemeses -- Google Inc. co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin -- were just 13 years old. And Apple Inc. co-founder Steve Jobs was just in the second year of an 11-year exile from the company that went on to invent the iPod, iPhone and iPad after he returned.
