Granted it's just a ying-yang symbol, but Microsoft used the exact same colors except they're flipped.

well i think the main coincidence is more in the fact that commonly used blending filters will do the same types of effects. most graphic artists will use photoshop or something simliar, and any gradients or alpha blending they do will end up looking the same. and shades of blue/white are used everywhere in computer software. hell just look at this message board... blues everywhere. and having two intertwined products, if one was directed to come up with some kinda graphic to represent that... it wouldn't be too difficult to arrive at something like a yin yang.
