Wow! CompUSA made a commercial to promote the powerbook! Kinda short and cheezy but surprising. Some piano/dance teacher editing footage on the powerbook and accidentally knocking things down followed by compusa logo with snow imac and printer and a message about a free printer with any computer there.

That wasn't a teacher, that was the famous Gregory Hines, a long time apple advocate and actor/performer.

I just saw this ad during ER. It was a nice change from all of the windows xp commercials.

Apple doesn't read these message boards. If you have a complaint or suggestion for OS X send feedback where it will do some good.
