Today I was thinking that Apple should take the opportunity to
rename itself to accompany the merger with NeXT.
I'm not very creative, so I might need some FoRKhelp.

:)
9. Gigaverse
(I know it's taken by a really cool company:

http://www.gigaverse.com/
but they'd probably sell the name if the price were right :)
8. ApplePLeXT
(not sure what it means, but it sounds cool :)
7. MaXT
(it sounds better than it looks :)
6. Mookie Blaylock
5. Boutros-Boutros, By Golly!
(for some reason, I can't get these names out of my head :)
4. MACrosoft
(or some variation thereof :)
3. Apple CoRE
(the big problem with this one is that the E is suffering
capital punishment :)
2. Jobs Migration
(my brain would have exploded if I came up with a good pun :)
And the number 1 name for Apple/NeXT I thought of at the gym:
1. To Be or Not To Be - What a Stupid Question
(kind of long as a company name, but it grows on you :)
