If I remember correctly it is from either an early/original Macintosh commercial or a commercial from the first Quadra. I think I used to have a copy of it on some machine.

Yes, I was wrong. I found the video that looked similiar and it was an advertisement for the Quadra 800. Weird thing is I had one of the first TiBooks but never saw that ad.

No, you are right. Apple used a shot from a Quadra commercial in that TiBook ad photo.

When Apple introduced the Macintosh Quadra line (the Quadra 700 as IIci replacement and the new Quadra 900) they had a commercial that showed a sports car ride along some country road at high speed. After a while the camera went back and you saw that this whole ride was all taking place in a window running on a Quadra.

The clip can be found here. Have fun.

This is what happens when we don't have anything to do on Friday night. From left to right: Zach with an 867 12in, Jared (new Mac user) with a 1.25 15in, Me with a new 1.33 12in, and Carl (new Mac user) with a new 1.33 12in. I somehow managed to talk Cal and Jared into buying Powerbooks.

Nothing like a wireless connection between friends.

Good pic. No offense to you guys or your 'Books, of course, but the babe in the back is far more intriguing to me.

striker100, my PB 17" is sitting on a PodiumPad (one of those cheap, plastic swivel stands they sell at the Apple store and which I HIGHLY recommend).

If/when I get a powerbook you're gonna see a million picts of it NOT on a stand and I'll NEVER put it on a stand! bwhahahahaha.

[Commodus]

I second the endorsement of the PodiumPad. It's nice if you need to tilt your laptop for a better view of the LCD or for typing on the laptop keyboard itself. The only drawback I'd note is that it's not as good if you're going to use an external keyboard directly in front of the laptop: you can't put the keyboard partially underneath like you might with some stands, so the LCD may be further away than you're comfortable with.
