Brilliant!!

I just had a brilliant moment with my son. On my laptop I have the software ExamDiff Pro. It is used to "diff" two files. Meaning, you can use it to compare two pieces of software to find any and all differences in two files. I've never noticed it before, but the icon is an apple and an orange.

Do you get it? It is used to compare files and the icon is an apple and an orange....like the phrases commonly used "we have to make an apples to apples comparison" or "we're comparing apples and oranges here". He just made me realize the significance of the icon and I've been using the software for over 3 years. Brilliant!
