ha ha yeah this week I ended up "working for beer". lol Another AF Base needed K9 cages installed in new vehicles so I volunteered to do it, in return a case of the large bottles.

That truck would be such a great track support vehicle...uber cool.

On older episodes of the show "24," "good guy" characters used Apple products while the "bad guys" used Windows and non-branded PCs. This year, many of the good guys use Hewlett-Packard gear.

"Apple is the brand of people who are creative," said Lucian James, president of Agenda Inc., a brand consulting firm. "Where they are using Apple is sort of suggesting artistic-ness."

Gag me with a freaking spoon.
When I notice a computer of some sort in a movie or TV show, it seems like at least 75% of the time it's an Apple/Mac of some sort. Even when they don't show the hardware, but they show the desktop, it's almost always fruity. I think Apple/Mac must spend a fortune getting their stuff into movies and TV shows for advertising. Thinking that it's just a fluke that the people making the movies are putting them there electively seems silly if that's what the above article is saying.

There's alot of "product placement" done on movies and television, even more so with the popularity of Tivo. They do spend a few bucks to get their products seen, also the shows don't always have to return the product when they're finished and the majority of the studio people use Mac. What better way to get a couple of free computers.
