The section describing these computers calls the offerings "confusing" and "disastrous" without a sufficient source. Perhaps it was confusing (I believe Steve Jobs noted the confusion around all the models at a later date post-return), but I do not believe there was any disaster at the time. This should be verified or rephrased to unload the language.--[[User:Schalliol|Schalliol]] ([[User talk:Schalliol|talk]]) 23:17, 2 April 2011 (UTC) |

Safari Missing from Apple Software Summary
I just noticed that Safari is missing from the "Apple Software includes line", right here: "Apple software includes the Mac OS X operating system; the iTunes media browser; the iLife suite of multimedia and creativity software; the iWork suite of productivity software; Aperture, a professional photography package; Final Cut Studio, a suite of professional audio and film-industry software products; Logic Studio, a suite of music production tools; and iOS, a mobile operating system." I just added Safari to this excerpt. --Evancg1411 (talk) 04:52, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
The bite in the Apple logo.
Hello everyone. I am new here, but I needed to explain a mistake. I have read over the Logos section under Corporate Affairs and I noticed a mistake. It states that "The Apple logo was designed with a bite so that it would be recognized as an apple rather than a cherry." This is only partially correct. The Apple logo originally consisted of the name "Apple Computer Inc" in lowercase letters to the right of what we know as the Apple logo today. But at first, the apple was just an apple. The bite was merely the space taken up by the overlapping "a" in "apple." I think we need to include this explanation as well as the red and white logo on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_font. Please, correct me if I am wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.185.8.42 (talk) 06:46, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
Ready, Set, Go!
I think the software package "Ready, Set, Go!" deserves some mention. Though it was soon eclipsed by pagemaker and quarkXpress it was the first Mac desktop publishing program, per se. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.32.157.242 (talk) 02:00, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Edit request from Numberjak, 23 March 2011
{{edit semi-protected}}
Please add the product iPad 2 under the current heading of iPad, with its release date etc, as it is a remarkable new step in Apple's manufacturing and design
Sorry I am new to Wikipedia, I hope this request was as it should be.

Not done for now: What is its release date? Crazymonkey1123 (Jacob) (Shout!) 19:41, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
- The section's out of date anyway. Here's an article courtesy of the New York Times that can serve both as a reference and provide any other needed information. I'll update it myself right now. elektrikSHOOS(editing from a public terminal) 19:47, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Designer Who Made Apple
That's odd, there seems to be absolutely no mention of the designer who made Apple into the company it is today, why is that? Twobells (talk)
