 3)Apple

Apple Computer Company was founded on April 1, 1976, by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.The foundation of Apple and the years that followed,we look at How Jobs met Woz and Why Apple was named as Apple. According to Steve Jobs, the company's name was inspired by his visit to an apple farm while on a fruitarian diet. Jobs thought the name "Apple" was "fun, spirited and not intimidating.Jobs and Woz met in 1971 during their college years, while they was in high school. A Wozniak's friend said, 'you should meet Steve Jobs because he likes electronics, and he also plays pranks.' So he introduced them.

                                         Apple's first logo, designed by Ron Wayne, depicts Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree. It was almost immediately replaced by Rob Janoff's "rainbow Apple", the now-familiar rainbow-colored silhouette of an apple with a bite taken out of it. Janoff presented Jobs with several different monochromatic themes for the "bitten" logo, and Jobs immediately took a liking to. This logo is often erroneously referred to as a tribute to Alan Turing, with the bite mark a reference to his method of suicide.
