Apple Logo

The Internet is an odd place sometimes.

I was googling {update: term removed by request} for reasons that I will keep to myself.  Not a lot of results there, but one led to tasty little tidbit that Apple’s second logo was a tribute to Alan Turing.  Seems that the father of modern computer preferred men and he committed suicide by partially eating a poisoned Apple.  Hence the rainbow apple with a bite.

If any of this is true only Mr. Jobs can tell.  But I find it rather strange that less then 30 minutes about stumbling across this that an article on the evolution of tech company logos appears on Techmeme and then gets picked up by TechCrunch.
