    You just know that there's a long haired rebel sitting just out of shot with a Vista laptop. He's sitting shunned by the sheep.

      It's cool and all. But, I hate seeing "conformity" of any type. Here it looks like they were recommended to use the macs and most likely did so. I'd love to see a healthy mix of macs, windows boxes, and linux boxes.

          Oh the shame. The igmony. Steve Jobs will have to hunt her down and bitch slap her while chanting the mantra - "Thou must buy Apple. Apple is cool. Apple is truth. Apple is light." Once she buys into that, she'll be a nice little cult member.

            most schools provide laptops to students, or suggest an appropriate laptop to purchase your first year of school. then again, it could be a scrap booking class...

                          Actually I should have used bushel of Macs as that is more appropriate. I'm not sure what the collective noun for Macs really is. :)

                                  It's cool and all. But, I hate seeing "conformity" of any type. Here it looks like they were recommended to use the macs and most likely did so. I'd love to see a healthy mix of macs, windows boxes, and linux boxes.

                                  That's what I thought too. Or maybe it's a school that gives everybody a laptop when they started.

                                    Almost any art school would be that way. The people who do the layout in for a paper/magazine most likely are mac users. It's possible that preference has spilled over into the rest of the business.

                                      Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

                                        I think Apple now just proved that a simple design decision, adding a glowing apple logo on the lid, will advertise your product better than anything else (in good or bad).
