What’s the story behind the Apple logo?

Why is Apple’s logo an apple and why did Steve Jobs name the company Apple? Is it just me or does it seem kind of random?

According to Steve Jobs, the company's name was inspired by his visit to an apple farm while on a fruitarian diet. Jobs thought the name "Apple" was "fun, spirited and not intimidating".[264]

In other words, kind of random. 😉 Fruitarian diets are just not good for your brain.
