McIntosh vs Macintosh naming rights Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs, reached a settlement agreement with McIntosh president, Gordon Gow, to use the name Macintosh for Apple’s start-up personal computer line. Although the brand names have a different spelling, they sounded enough alike when pronounced that the agreement required a placard be placed on the back of the Macintosh Plus 1MB computer starting in March of 1983. In March of 1986, Apple gained exclusive license rights to use the Macintosh name for an undisclosed but substantial sum of money.
