Parallax doesn’t evoke a feeling for me. Something like Hydra conjures imagery. Of course that’s different for everyone. I think you need a name for the new “series” + variant ie Hydra P2 other some similar. I’d view the Propeller as an earlier series. The New chip as a new advanced NEW series. Not a logical follow up to P1 per se
I don't let my preferences stop me from thinking and exploring. I prefer a steak but I don't mind exploring new foods, and aren't we glad of that. Some people prefer rice and that is all they ever eat
This thread is about exploring, putting our dishes out on the buffet table so that we can try and compare etc. In the end it won't be about our preferences, it will be about which is best.
OK, let me rephrase my comment. I think the original logo is the best.
However, if we are going to pursue food analogies, then how about this?
We might say P2Fire. But, uncomfortable connotations. Chip in Red Bluff lives too close to the Carr Fire just 31 miles north outside Redding. Chip, is the smoke bad where you are? P2Caliente?
Also, "Fire" is too close to "Hot", and we don't want that!. Maybe P2WayCool.
Hydra is a classic fictional beast with multiple heads. Seen in numerous movies.
Hydra generally refers to: Lernaean Hydra, a many-headed serpent in Greek mythology. Hydra (genus), a genus of simple freshwater animals belonging to the phylum Cnidaria.

For the last few days, the sky has been getting clearer. There was so much ash in the air a few days ago that you couldn't even tell what part of the sky the sun was in. Ash has been settling on to everything outside, just a wispy coating.

In that case, it should be the Propeller Phoenix .
Propeller Phoenix - Ancient legend paints a picture of a magical bird, radiant and shimmering, which lives for several hundred years before it dies by bursting into flames. It is then reborn from the ashes, to start a new, long life. So powerful is the symbolism that it is a motif and image that is still used commonly today in popular culture and folklore.

It was a chromosomal quip. XX is female, XY is male. So is it a boy band? Is it a girl group? No, XYZZY must be......

Good idea. There's even an old country song (Phantom 409 IIRC) that could be modified to use as a jingle for the video.

And have the Irish Rovers do the theme song for the launch ;-)

Turns out this is called octatetranyl...
Google finds
"Hydra is a fictional terrorist organization appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics."
- looks like it's already taken, and with not the best connotations, and by someone keen to defend US copyrights....

Qui = who?
c = cpu / controller
k = clocking, RC slow / fast
alu = alu
r = ram / registers
In that case, it should be the Propeller Phoenix .
I still don't know why you don't just call it the Parallax Turbine and be done with it.
...Nevermind this is hard, Warner Bros would sue.
But the registration for Turbicon looks like it was cancelled, and nobody relevant took Turbocon.
