The President of the U.S. Uses a MacBook Pro (in 24, at least)

Fox's 24 is my favorite TV show hands down. In fact, it's pretty much the only thing that I watch the night of, whereas everything else is relegated to folders on my TiVo. Ok, I guess there is 30 Rock, but I digress.

In tonight's episode, 10:00am - 11:00am, President Wayne Palmer is hurried off to a secret bunker after a rogue suitcase nuke is detonated in suburban Los Angeles. His computer of choice? A MacBook Pro of course.

Spoiler! (I haven't gotten a chance to watch it yet!!)

Hey. Can't wait until next week. Jack's dad... Wow. Anyway, that wasn't a dirty nuke. That was a fissionable, detonated nuke. Dirty nukes don't have the fancy flash and just spread radioactive debris everywhere. That thing detonated and actually split the atom.

chloe's monitor had an obvious apple logo on it also, as well as several other laptops at CTU HQ

I used to watch 24 in seasons 1 & 2, and there they had G4 iMacs everywhere. I guess Apple's paying them quite a bit...

I seem to remember in previous seasons, the good guys used macs and the bad guys used PCs.

I haven't watched since season one, but back then one of the characters suddenly switched from using a Mac to using a PC. Sure enough, a few episodes later that character was revealed to be a bad guy.
