this brings to my mind a Microsoft print campaign in a major german IT 
magazine (c't) some years ago, with a handful of penguin- 
crosses, and the text stating something in the direction of - oh wait, I 
finally found it:


The text says: "An open OS does not only have advantages", the smaller 
text at the top basically say "An open OS can mutate. With Windows 2000 
on the other hand, you find all services in one place..."

This was even on slashdot e.a., and thus I guess this isn't such a good 
idea. There is even a penguin-rabbit cross on it!

Indeed I like the symbolic in it.  I see many "hooks"

A logo is allways in a color setting.
Tux has yellow feet, but on a laserprinter[1] it get grey feet.
It would be nice if the FAI logo is designed in black only,
just as Holger did.

Fitting Tux in a F is foolies.

as Thomas said, currently not. 

I made a design evaluation which can be seen at http://www.layer-acht.org/fai/ 
- I do like the idea (FAI being a puzzle or framework of components) although 
I must admit the artwork could be improved by some artists work ;-)

A robotic penguin: MechaTux.

I can't find any ready-made pictures. Here is one of a CyberTux:
