Yeah, the new logo is terrible, only takes up 1/2 the icon. I'll just suck it up, personally, but I don't know how they thought this little icon is an improvement over the old one - it's not. In any way. Ah well...
Most of the complaints seem to centre around it not looking at all like a house anymore. In fact some were referring to it as the "baseball home plate".
Another comment noted that the branching bears a striking resemblance to the USB logo.
