Why is the Apple logo a bitten apple?

When Apple was born in 1976, Steve Jobs ySteve Wozniak, with the help of Roland Wayne, they designed a complex logo with a man under a tree and an apple in his hands, which probably alluded to the great physique Isaac Newton. But they soon decided to simplify it and adopted as a logo the rainbow apple (although with the colors in another order), designed by Rob Janoff, with a bite, later replaced by a bright-colored apple.

Why a bite?

Apparently the bite is intended to symbolize knowledgeAnd there are also those who say that since the word bite in English is "bite," the bite makes a nod to computer "bytes."

What Jobs had decided long before selecting the logo is that his company would be called Apple. His colleague Wozniak assures that he never asked him why he liked the name, although he considered two hypotheses. For one thing, Jobs had been working with a group of friends on a community farm in Oregon, and perhaps his contact with the fruit itself gave him the idea. But it is also possible that it had a musical origin, since Jobs was a fan of the British group The Beatles, which recorded with the record label Apple Records.
