As much as I absolutely HATE Andy Warhol, I'm glad he came up with the rainbow Mac logo.
You can go ahead and keep hating him if you like. The logo came from Rob Janoff.

Warhol did independently make some prints like this one later on.

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.

Someone should get a tattoo. C'mon, you know you want to. :D

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

Heh, looks more like a tattoo than a logo for a computer company. For any company for that matter.
