Apple announces new logo
Well mark this a win in the "Stick it to Apple Corps" column: According to TheMacObserver, Apple today unveiled a brand new corporate logo, replacing the
legendary bitten apple that Mac fans have grown to recognize and love. From TMO: "'We look forward to moving forward under our new corporate
identity," said Apple vice president Phil Schiller in a statement. 'This gives us the opportunity to start our
marketing off with a clean slate.'"Here, here. I'm digging it, though I'm a bit skeptical that a birthday cupcake-like design may eventually get, I don't know, old. And what happens when Apple reaches 50 or 60 and starts to want to avoid birthday celebrations like some guy going through a mid-life crisis? Then what? It'll be constantly reminded every day that it's getting old and is no longer the energetic, motorcycle-drivin' ladies man it used to be.
Whatever. I'm sure Apple knows what it's doing...it just feels like the company is getting a tattoo that ten years down the road, when its arm is all wrinkly and the tattoo looks like a garbled drawing on a wet scrunched up rag, it's gonna regret it -- and no acid in the world could burn it off.
Well, good luck Apple. Here's to the future!

I realize I'm inciting a flamewar, but I think this needs to be said:
Don't ruin the community with your wealth of contentless whining. If you want to whine about something, there's already a community for that, it's called Digg. If you're going to hate on something, just don't post. We don't need it.
Lucky TUAW, most readers don't read comments, and realize how childish other readers of TUAW are.
Hey, has anyone mentioned April Fools yet?
Dipshits.
