Jim Reekesis one engrossing guy . He create the start - up chime you learn every meter you re-start your Mac . He apply the Christian Bible “ ear - conelike ” in a conviction . And in this ( slightly NSFW ) interview with Dutch TV , he brings the awesome .

The segment set forth out in Dutch , but the consultation is all in English . Other playfulness tidbits worth watch for : The name for “ Sosumi ” came out of Apple ’s legal spat with the Beatles . The Apple II sounds were build around “ The Interval of the Devil . ” And an Amazon review for Wall - E made the Apple sound guy wire sense like a rockstar .
