More Macs in Movies: Austin Powers Goldmember


I saw Austin Powers in Goldmember. It was an exceptional movie. Since it was such a high profile movie, the producers were able to get a lot of cameos. I will not reveal who these cameos are, because it would reduce from your first viewing. There also was a cameo or two from Apple. Austin Powers used a PowerBook G4, running AOL and OS 9. Also on Foxxy Cleopatra’s sleep-wear in the same scene, there was the typical Austin Powers male-symbol. However, it was blue, and had a blue dot in the middle, making look almost identical to a rotated Quicktime logo. It is a great movie, I would suggest that you go see it.
