Just like Apple’s system sound of a piano chord was called “SOSUMI”.

I’m sure you know the whole story Dayglored, but it turned out it was Steve Jobs’ thumb snub to the Beatles who sued Apple for the Apple label on it’s records.

The stipulation was that Apple would “NOT get into the MUSIC BUSINESS” ... so Apple said “SO SUE ME” ... sosumi”

Yep, Steve Jobs had an awesome sense of humor. It was odd, not the kind of humor you share with a couple of guys at a bar over beers, but his sense of style and grasp of philosophy contributed greatly to his sense humor.
