what do the people think, do we listen to what the big companys want us to hear :
the apple logo.
alan turing, an englishman, arguably one of the cleverest people that ever lived on earth up until now, he was miles ahead of his time.
he invented the very first computer called the bombe to decode the german enigma machine for radio code during world war 2 winning the allies the war.
once the allies could get the information on battle plans before they happened, they were ready and waiting for the germans.
he was persecuted by the british government for being gay, so ashamed was he that he injected an apple with poison and took a bite and killed himself.
a scotsman named gordon brown who was prime minister apologised to alan turings family on behalf of the british government on september 10th 2009 calling alan turing a great man who was a war hero.
now you know where the apple logo came from.

ok brain of america,
so the apple logo has nothing to do with the worlds very first computer, so did you email and ask them why they had a fruit as a logo with a bite from it.
did they say it was because they believed eve bit the first forbidden apple on earth, i dont think so, decipher it for yourself.
maybe they have it because they love to eat fruit ?
i wonder what an apple has to do with a computer ??
use your brain.....
you dont need anybody else to think for you.
the americans are a funny breed, next apple will be saying its a conspiracy theory, why would they have the invention of an englishman as their logo.
so it must be the forbidden love part, i do not think so.
let the rest of the planet decide for themselves.
from wikipedia :
Turing is shown holding an apple—a symbol classically used to represent forbidden love, the object that inspired Isaac Newton's theory of gravitation, and the means of Turing's own death.
ALAN TURING the inventor of the worlds first computer, killed by a bite from an apple.
always remember that wikipedia is written by the people, it can be ammended at any time.
