I don't know have the first one here, on F9,
aside from the logo I think it's fine.
lost my dual setup with f9 :(

I find the focus on the katana (though is it a shin-gunto?)
fine, it is centred on(1) will catch the users eye on login.
But will most likely then be covered by whatever console\app(s) user is
running. Leaving the soft edges to be viewed\unless maximized windows.

I think many non-artistic users, who have not had to endure hours of
art-appreciation. Would maybe like the sharp imagery, and be able to say
"ah, it's a sword with some leaves blowing by"

from my 3\4 sp days, first q? to ask: Who is the customer?
In the main non-artists, but they still like a good image.
