Apparently I'm still really, really bad at this.


:). Just think to yourself what apples have to do with computers and phones.


The Apple name did have a somewhat contrived connection with computers when the company was first started.

Back in 1976, Steve Jobs explained the name to me: "Take a byte of the Apple, get it?" And that's where the famous shape of the logo came from.

(I almost ended up working for him at the time - but that is a whole other story!)


That's cute! I didn't know that, thanks.
