I thought it was kind of obvious. It's almost common sense that one of the founders would be a Mac user.
Yeah, but haven't both of them left the company for some reason or he other in the past? I know they're both back, but it is worth noting in my opinion. :D Movie stars don't always watch their own movies. :D

That analogy does not fit. Movie stars are a component to a product (the movie). The studio which produces the movie would be the company, and the executives of that studio would be in a position similar to Jobs and Wozniak.

But movie stars work in their movies. The Steves work in the business. Neither one would never have to really use them today. The analogies are loose. I seem to recall another thread were your analogies are quite loose too. Lighten up, I am not trying to fight with you, or troll. Sorry if you may feel different. ;)

We do seem to be going back and forth:) I did however, want some famous people that wouldn't obviously be linked to Apple. The only reason I put Al Gore on there was because some people don't know that he's a board member.

One last thing about movie stars, and then we'll stop using analogies. Movie stars don't work in their "own" movies. Sometimes they direct and produce, but the movie still belongs to the studio. Besides, movie stars are some of the most self-absorbed people there are, of course they watch themselves;)

Well it is all in how you look at it I guess, and how theoretical people can get and the exceptions to every rule, and every rule was made to be broken and so on.:rolleyes:

You say potato, I say, too many carbs:D

Well, I use Mac's and flaunt that fact, but I guess my celebrity status is pretty limited ;)

I've seen Madonna use Mac's in concert. No, wait, the entire concert was Mac's, they were even on-stage. I took as many photos of the Mac's as I did of her. Nice job, Madge.

As for Snow Patrol, I believe they do use Mac's for their work, yes. I couldn't make any out at The O2, but I was quite far away from the sound box.

Add Andrew Sullivan, as well as Roger Ebert, to that list.

In fact, Ebert has a pretty great quote about it. It's something like, "The percentage of the human population that can be described as reasonable is almost identical to the percentage that uses Apple computers."

I like that quote; it seems to fit well with the world doesn't it:) As for old Roger, where is he? Is he not well? I haven't seen him on his own show for some time now.
