Whooops.

Just saw an ad for Intel centrino wireless chips, and a couple using their laptop and a camera to show off the Colloseum to their friends back in the US.

Only problem? The laptop was a G4, the camera was an iSight, and both groups using computers were running OS X....

Oh, well!

It's funny because it's true!

Powerbooks occasionally pop up inappropriately in Microsoft software ads, and you can almost hear 50 maclots simultaneously jab the Update Weblog button when that happens. ;-)

You know, I haven't gone that far, but yes, whenever a mac shows up on the MS site (mostly because it's clip art photos), I do probably make more about it than I should. That and to prove I'm really pathetic, I'll not only point out it's a mac, but try to determine which exact model mac it is. We all know it's a powerbook from the mid/late-90s, but was it a 1400, 3400, or early model G3 powerbook?

For my part, I can only easily distinguish several makes of Apple laptop: iBooks, G4 Powerbooks, and very late G3 Powerbooks.

...Anything else is probably some Amelio-era product which might spontaneously combust, or worse: run OS7. ;-)
