Apple Macintosh team Pirate flag

This is the only photo I know of that features the original pirate flag as used by the Macintosh team at Apple. They idea was that the Apple logo served as an eye patch.

    I've seen this photo before and I love it.

    Puckman, I have a slightly different picture of the Apple pirate flag which was hung up above the Macintosh team's building (Bandley 1?):

    Yeah I saw that but I don't think it was the original one. It is way to clean and stylized. It also looks shiny. The original flag was hand painted by Susan Kare, the woman who also designed all the icons and fonts for the Macintosh.

    Read revolution in the valley again if you want the low down on the flag ^_^
