From Wikipedia, that well-known source of sometimes (not always)
misleading information:
Apple declared the 'i' in iMac to stand for "Internet"; it also
represented >the product's focus as a personal device ('i' for "individual").
We also have the Thinkpad, from IBM, a fine personal computing
device if a little dated. Nobody was thinking about feminine
hygiene when they named that bad boy. "Think" was IBM's motto.
i think Apple is just hung up on sticking an "i" in front of whatever they
make. Maybe they should have called it a "Macpad."
A new improved model could be called a "Maxipad."
