My daughter watches "Full House" and I noticed DJ doing her homework on an early Mac on an episode the other day. (What was the name of that model? the one with the single floppy drive, b&w monitor and cpu all in one unit?)

Mimi on "Drew Carey" had a pink iMac on her desk, too.

Any more?

Are these anything like Mac sightings?

Dave used a PowerBook on NewsRadio.
An iMac was stolen on Boston Public.

I remember seeing an Apple laptop used in Jurassic Park. The Apple Logo was updside down.

Hasn't this been done to death already? And mentioned as sightings.

It's hard these days not to see something with an Apple product in it.

Comedy here in the UK called with Stephen Fry called Absolute Power, about a celebrity PR agency. They had a meeting and Stephen Fry wasn't in the office, so they had a Powerbook 17" and iSight on the table to talk to him with the view of him on the PB fullscreen in iChat.

Stephen Fry is an out and out Mac fan, incase you didnt know.

OK, OK, I can't spell, it's Monday, alright? I hadn't seen a thread of this nature since I've been a member. Mod's, just kill it now.

gilmore girls! Rory was given a clamshell ibook for hir birthday. And Sell This House (with Tanya Memme) uses it to play video footage.

I watched a show on Discovery Channel the other night about the Deep Impact/Temple1 comet mission. I was pleasantly surprised to see so many Powerbooks in the hands of the astrophysicists.

Here in the UK there is a comedy series called 'Absolute Power' staring the well known Mac lover Stephen Fry. It's based in a Office of A PR company and almost every scene has at lest one Mac in it. Last weeks even included a lengthy section using a set of iSight cams, with a pic on a 17" Powerbook that looked suspiciously like the 'real' iChat full screen vid.

Woah! Deja vu.....

I was walking down the street the other day, and someone had an iPod.

All my physics professors use Apples, but it's really because they're all pretty computer illiterate. I still find it interesting that you can be technical enough to have a PhD in physics, and but not be technical enough to download your email.

It's sitting!

Yes, I know that he/she said "siting."

Yes, I know that I just killed the whole "U SPELT IT WRONG!" joke.

[Jawbone54]

There's always an Apple in Jerry's apartment on Seinfeld.

[OwlBoy]

There is a Powerbook in Constantine… most recent one I can think of. (Just saw it on DVD a few days ago)

If you watch the NASA footage from inside the control room, most of the laptops you see are PowerBooks. I noticed this while I was watching the comet impactor mission live. NASA seems to like OS X.

A lot of the scientific models and simulations nowadays are running on OS X, as opposed to Linux or Solaris. It's true.

Ah yeah, your right.

This surprises me actually. Dunno why…

There are lots of new members


Most memorable; Cary's Powerbook on "Sex in the City" (HBO),
and the episode where her boyfriend tried to fix it.

Hang in there Karen.

There was a time, in days of old, where we had a dedicated forum for the topic. If I remember correctly, it was called "Macs in the Media" and was dedicated to any and all mac sightings.
