The name "Apple" was chosen by co-founder Steve Jobs. According to Jobs, he thought the name sounded "fun, spirited, and not intimidating." He also mentioned that he was a fan of the fruit, and he felt that the name would help the company stand out. Additionally, in the early days, the name was practical; it would ensure that the company appeared before others in alphabetical listings. Apple Computer, Inc. was founded in 1976, and the company has since evolved into a leading technology company, simply known as Apple Inc. since it expanded beyond personal computers to include a wide array of consumer electronics and digital services.
