Ever listen to the Futurama and Simpsons director's commentaries?
They often will mention Macs.

I remember on a Futurama episode, they had stock symbols scrolling on a satellite (or something) and they intentionally had OSX (as a stock symbol) worth much more MSN or WIN (or some other Microsoft reference).

Almost. In a while, anyway.

An interesting poster.

That's just an old "Life In Hell" cartoon reused, he didn't draw it for Apple.

Really?

I knew it was "Life in Hell", but I didn't know that it was a reused cartoon.

Thanks.
