new logo for business technology specialist

We are business technology specialists and we want a logo that is both professional and cutting edge. The logo will be used for popular business marketing materials and content and must appeal to many types of people. We'd like our logo to be unique enough to stand out and also stand alone as a brand of our company and be used anywhere we want.

Propelnet

Propelnet is going through some changes, we've relied on referrals for a long time and marketing hasn't been a priority.  We are looking to grow the business and will be doing some marketing and the company image and representation are increasingly important.  We want the kind of image that makes people want to comment, we want people to see our card once and remember the name, we want impact.

We are professionals, most of us wear suits and those that dont are in business dress.  While we want something cutting edge, it needs to match a man or woman in a suit.  We are young and will stay young as we age - for every game of golf is a game of paintball and a good time includes a little horseplay and good friends.

I'd like a logo that includes a graphic component and the name of the company, Propelnet, and I am open to the arrangement.  The graphic should be able to work without the name.  We will use the logo in various types of media, and will need versions for full color, greyscale, b/w and 2 color.

- tagline of 'business technology specialists'
- cutting edge/professional hybrid
- graphic can be used independently on text
- professional colors like dark blue and silver - open here, but not for pinks and purples.
- a kickass logo!

- no cliche stuff like mice or monitors
- no arcs, swooshes or bands
