Although it would not be difficult to Photochop some 'Books in there, I don't think it looks obviously doctored.

It's not doctored, I saw it live...unless of course they doctored it for live TV. That would be a huge waste of time.

No, no—just their social and world views. Otherwise they use cool computers.

That is a fair assumption that both Democrats and Republicans prefer Mac's. Just shows that Democrats aren't 100% evil.

Me neither. Judging from TV and movies, you would expect Apple to have a majority.
In movies/tv shows macs are put there to make the show look cool/stylish. Similar reasons here maybe?

I don't care who's Democrat & who's Republican.

I vote for the guy on the right.

The woman's iBook either was never even turned on or has gone into Sleep mode. Either way, she wasn't using it enough.
