Glad the Microsoft logo on the podium was tall enough to cover the apple logo ;-)

If TV programs can conceal the Apple Logo It's surprising, if this is real, that Steve would not have done the same. On those TV programs it's easy to recognize a PowerBook or MacBook /MacBook Pro to the Mac faithful by seeing port locations or on the Pro versions the placement of the speaker grills on each side of the keyboard. All the new computers have the distinctive video camera at the top of the screen so you don't even need to see the keyboard or ports to identify a Mac laptop.

LOL at the quotes on his stupid powerpoint slides!
What corporate-dilbert-speak! Future graduated? WTF? Great photo of Monkey boi in his nice suit pontificating too.
Made my day.

"Future graduated"
I think it's a type-o that's supposed to read "Future graduates"
While the thought of Ballmer using a mac is pretty satisfying, it may not be HIS laptop, but rather the one that whoever was organizing the event decided to install at the podium. The real question is: is it Powerpoint or Keynote he's using? That, my friend, will be the dealbreaker.

It would be running Bootcamp surely.
Yeah right.

The laptop was left there by the previous speaker. It is Not Ballmer's laptop.
Think different, for once
