Spel Checking at Apple

Sadly, Apple MacIntosh pioneer Jef Raskin has died of pancreatic cancer. In addition to creating the concept, Raskin's role included naming the project after his favorite fruit--the McIntosh apple. Unfortuately, when it came to putting the name on the computer it was misspelled 'MacIntosh'. So okay, they didn't have spell check back then. Let's take a look at Mr. Raskin's name again. It's spelled Jef.
