Funny Powerbook Link

Check this out from Best Buy, pretty funny stuff. Zoom in on the picture, don't they win some kind of prize for running windows on this thing?

Well you get a prize.

First, the page clearly says Powerbook G4 not the new intel books.

Second, it could be running VPC. (but it is obviously a joke or mistake)

Third, there already is a thread on this.

I think that's even WINDOWS 95! ("My Computer" angled toward the outer edge of the screen, other 95ish things like that.)
- iMac 3.2Ghz 1TB - MacBook Pro 15" Core i7 2.3Ghz / 256SSD (Work laptop)
- PowerMac G5 - Dual 2.0 Ghz, 3GB, Soundsticks!,
- Lenovo Thinkpad T510 (also a work laptop), Win 7 Enterprise, 8GB, 320GB HDD

It's obviously a GUI mod... we all know how everyone loves the Windows 95 look and feel
