Think different

Apple's "Think different" logo

"Think different" is an advertising slogan used from 1997 to 2002 by Apple Computer, Inc., now named Apple Inc. The campaign was created by the Los Angeles office of advertising agency TBWA\Chiat\Day.[1] The slogan has been widely taken as a response to the IBM slogan "Think".[2][3][4] It was used in a television advertisement, several print advertisements, and several TV promos for Apple products.

As of 2020, "Think different" was still printed on the back of the box of the iMac.[5]
