I came across this online and I though it was interesting...

"The original Apple logo was designed by Steve Jobs and Ron Wayne and depicts Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree." -Wikipedia

i have seen that never knew what is was!

Glad they went with the Apple with a bite out of it!

That is awful.

That is awful.

...it was also 30 years ago.

I can read.

I can read.

If you think that was bad...yeesh. Microsoft's original one is 70s futuristic crud - same goes to most companies when they start out in the beginning...not that great, but it improves over time.

In relation to the anus comments..... "ouch.."

Their logo today is perfect!

@ at those Microsoft logos! The original Apple one is pretty bad, too. It's way too busy to even be a logo. But I know, I know... that was 30 years ago.

I miss the rainbow one.

I agree.

Thanks for giving me the best laugh of this (and maybe last) week --- that is such a stunning lateral analogy! Did I ever LOL when I read it? Brilliant.

As much as I absolutely HATE Andy Warhol, I'm glad he came up with the rainbow Mac logo.

That's also back when Jobs was hitting acid. I think the influence of that is pretty evident in that logo. It looks like its from a 16th century bottle of absinthe.

That logo totally looks like something from the 1800s!

Thanks for posting it as I had never seen it.

I'd kill for that to be on my Mac mini instead of the logo that's on it now.
