HIGH TECH THINGS ABOUT APPLE AND HOW IT MADE TECHNOLOGY COOL

IN THE 1990’S APPLE USED CARL SAGAN AS THE

CODENAME FOR A COMPUTER. HE SUED

THEM SO THEY CHANGED IT TO "BUTT-HEAD

ASTRONOMER". HE THEN CAME AFTER THEM

FOR LIBEL AND LOST. SO APPLE CHANGED THE

NAME TO "LAWYERS ARE WIMPS"

IN 1979, A PATENT WAS SUBMITTED BY A MAN

NAMED KANE KRAMER THAT ALMOST PERFECTLY

RESEMBLED WHAT AN IPOD WOULD

EVENTUALLY LOOK LIKE

IOS IS ACTUALLY TRADEMARKED BY CISCO, NOT APPLE

APPLE CO-FOUNDER RONALD WAYNE SOLD HIS

SHARES FOR $800. TODAY THEY WOULD HAVE

BEEN WORTH $35 BILLION

BAKING A MACBOOK'S MOTHERBOARD IN THE OVEN

(YES, BAKING LIKE A CAKE!) IS A LEGITIMATE

WAY TO FIX IT

APPLE CAN'T USE THE IPHONE TRADEMARK IN BRAZIL

BECAUSE A COMPANY CALLED GRADIENTE

ELETRONICAS REGISTERED IT IN 2000

GOOGLE MAKES MORE PROFIT OFF OF IOS THAN

IT DOES OFF OF ANDROID

THE IPHONE IS NEARLY TWICE AS EXPENSIVE

IN BRAZIL AS IT IS IN THE US
