They used to be in computing, but they branched out. Now the branchout is their whole business, and the name stuck. And if you believe that, I've got a low-flying altocumulonimbus to sell you.

As for the toilet paper thing, well, the people who market the stuff are just desperate to glamourize it in some way. They don't want you to think about what it's *for*, but they want you to buy their brand, so they give it names like "Angel Soft," "White Cloud," and "Charmin" to make it sound all nice and cozy and pretty and stuff.
