I'm trying to figure out why Calvin is even used, and all I can get is the lame almost-ryhme in the title. Calvin could be anyone or no one, all the character does is stand there and say "What's the punchline, Mr. Jobs?"

Well he uses Moe, which is another character from Calvin and Hobbes in the strip. Overall it's mostly Jobs though. Also, Jobs doesn't take on any of the characteristics of Hobbes, who is usually the voice of reason, which I think would have been clever.
