I really do find the design creative and well executed, but I think Apple should not officially support it. In my eyes, any variation of a company logo weakens the brand. Yes, Google has a variation of theirs every week it seems, but it's in an environment they control. When you fail to control of you brand, it can degrade to Calvin-peeing-on-Ford stickers. Looking at his past, I think someone as meticulous as Jobs (

The Apple brand/identity Jobs created is now a culture/company that is larger than Jobs himself. It has and will continue to outlive him.
