Laptop machines is Apple Macintosh spelt backwards

Actually it’s an anagram but it’s nonetheless a clever spot by Stephen Fry.

“Laptop machines”, by one of those preposterous twists of circumstance that make you wonder who is running things and why they haven’t got anything better to do, just happens to be an anagram of “Apple Macintosh”. If an anagram is a derivative rearrangement of essential elements, then one might be disposed to argue that such has been their rise in influence and prestige that almost every new digital product seems to be an anagram of Apple.
