Steve Woznaik (sitting) and Steve Jobs of Apple Computers.

He was three months late in filing a name for the business because he didn’t get any better name for his new company. So one day he told to the staff: “If I’ll not get better name by 5 o’clock today, our company’s name will be anything he likes…” so at 5 o’clcok nobody come up with better name, and he was eating Apple that time… so he keep the name of the company ‘Apple Computers’.

Finally, after years of unfulfilled promises, power management features in Windows XP actually work (most of the time). Now you can put your machine in a no-power hibernation state, and when you awaken your computer from its slumber, Windows reappears in a flash.

The Hibernate option can be hard to find. Here’s the trick: when you reach the “Turn off computer” screen, hold down the Shift key. The Stand By button miraculously turns into a Hibernate button. So, Click and snooze!

Don’t see the Hibernate option? Hibernation was probably disabled on your system. To enable it, open the Power Options control panel, click the Hibernate tab, and check the “Enable Hibernation” box.

The world’s most expensive phone number is 666 6666.

The number was auctioned for charity in Qatar and sold for 10m Qatari riyals or £1.5m.

The previous record holder was Chinese number 8888 8888, which sold for £270,000. The Cantonese word for eight sounds very similar to the word for rich. It was bought by Sichuan Airlines.

The auction started at a million riyals and interest quickly narrowed from eight bidders to just two, according to Kuwaiti News Agency (KUNA).

Having seven sixes as your mobile number might seem devilish to some, but interpretations vary. A brief dip into the weird world of numerology shows 666 is seen as holy in Judaism because it represents six directions - up, down, north, south, east and west. Others equate it with the Arabic word “ellah” meaning God.

On a techy note, the first Apple Computer sold for $666.66, the sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet is w - so www. shows how evil the internet is. And finally, Viagra has a molecular weight of 666.7g/mol.
