Last night I heard this story on the news.

Apple has a new computer under development. Their project name for it
was "Carl Sagan" (I don't know why).

When the real Carl Sagan learned about this, he was upset. He demanded
that Apple stop using his name, even for their private, internal
projects.

Apple agreed. They changed the name of the project to
"Butthead Astronomer".
