Back in the day when the very first iMac was introduced, it was stated that the "i" was for "internet". Back then, it was hard to set computers up for an internet connection and the iMac was supposed make it very easy ("there's no step 3", to quote the ad from way back then).

But these days, I don't think it really stands for anything any more. People have come to associate an "iAnything" with Apple.

Why is that so important?

That's the beauty of it. You take the question just as seriously as it deserves.
