Wall-E = Apple

• When WALL-E is fully charged by the sun, he makes the same "boot up" sound that most of Apple's Macintosh computers have made since circa 1996.
• WALL-E watches his favorite movie every night on the screen of an iPod
• The villainous Autopilot's voice is provided by Apple's text-to-speech system, MacinTalk
• EVE's sleek design as an evolution of WALL-E's parallels the sleek iMac design having evolved from the boxy, beige Apple IIe.
• Steve Jobs, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Apple Computer, was CEO of Pixar until its acquisition by Disney in 2005, and as a shareholder and member of the Disney Board of Directors is still actively involved with the company.
