Valve seems to have removed the SteamPlay logo from Steam

people have been in the internet and tux icon has been there for long long time to represent linux.
Ofc there are people who don't know what it means. but SteamOS logo is the same log as Steam logo.
this confuses the shit out of many people still. They have Category Linux+SteamOS why not have both icons then on store also if they really want their Steam icon there. or Change the SteamOS icon to something else so people can make a difference between steam and steam OS logo
edit: not to mention many games have system requirements Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 without SteamOS support, but the store still shows that logo. And some games requirements show as Any modern distro. so Tux logo would be logical there.

Quoting: MikeI wouldn't be so categorical, the vast majority of people still do not know what Linux is. Tux is known among Linux users and some computer enthusiasts, but it is striking to see how many people do not know what Tux represents.The people i have talked about here usually know the tux icon. Even if they never used it.
When I was at university (which was last year, so not a long time ago), I had a communication class where our teacher had chosen to compare OS market shares, and we were only 2 out of 34 to understand what this little penguin was about. Someone finally asked what it was, and the answer made me laugh and mad at the same time.
Our teacher basically said: "Oh this? This is Linux, some obscure system made for geeks back in the 90's that never took off and never will as it is stuck in its era. It still uses terminal prompts as of today, you know, those green text commands on a black screen... No wonder no one uses it!"
Sorry about the novel, but I had to share that.

seriously that steamOS logo is still confusing lots of people.
bring the tux back, everybody knows its a linux icon, even kind a newbie user who has just used computers for gaming.
