Alpha symbol

Hallo,
I have to create a corporate logo which takes his name from the 'alpha' greek letter. I'd like to make something stylish not relying on the 'a' Symbol glyph. Any type resource to suggest?

TIA

Maybe find something with that letter's (supposed) origin as an ox's head?

But: what does the company do?

Very nice idea!
But the company's main field is IT consulting and all what's related to computers and that kind of business solutions...

Then maybe do a low-res bitmap rendering of a Greek alpha. Like check out the Xerox logo - do they still use that? The one where part of an UC "X" is a degrading bitmap.

Beautiful!

thanks a lot!
