尽管有许多理论证明s和c在iPhone中的一些含义，但s和c在iPhone中真正代表什么意思其实还是个问题。但对于苹果在其产品的品牌推广中使用的i的含义，其实答案早已揭晓。

The meaning of theiin devices such as theiPhone andiMac was actually revealed by Apple co-founder Steve Jobs a long time ago. Back in 1998, when Jobs introduced the iMac, he explained what theistands for in Apple's product branding.

在iPhone和iMac等设备中，i的含义其实是由苹果联合创始人史蒂夫•乔布斯(Steve Jobs)很久以前提出的。1998年，当乔布斯推出iMac时，他解释了i在苹果产品品牌中的含义。

Theistands forInternet, Jobs explained. TheiMac's job was to make accessing the Internet simpler and more intuitive, though intuitive wasn't revealed to be one of the words represented by thati.

“i”代表互联网，乔布斯解释道。iMac的任务是让上网变得更简单、更直观，尽管直观（intuitive）并不是i所代表的单词之一。

Even though this is a full-blooded Macintosh, we are targeting this for the number one use that consumers tell us they want a computer for, which is to get on the Internet - simply, and fast, Jobs said. And that is what this product is targeted for.

乔布斯说:“即便这是一台真正意义上的麦金托什机，但我们致力于做好消费者用它的第一用途，也就是他们想要一台电脑做的第一件事——就是上网。”这就是这个产品的目标。
