• How about because it's much easier to make creative content (e.g. movies) on a Mac... - oscar 18:26:48 08/10/04 (0)

  then on virtually every other platform... Therefore most of the computer props will be whatever Macs happen to be laying around not being utilized at the time. Also, I used to think SGIs ruled the graphics world but 64 bit G5s are probably making serious inroads in the really high end graphics arena.

  Don't know how easy it is on the Windoze side, but one of the first things I did with a new Mac laptop and a digital camcorder was make home movies. Now there's other tools to make it extremely easy for Mac-based music studios. Usually the dark (Windoze) side is a step behind trying to emulate Macs in the creativity department.

  Think about most computers you have seen on hit TV shows. Case in point, "Sex in the City".

  Doesn't mean anything. Just because a gadget or pc is used in movies, they're not necessarily using them at home.

  If you watch scifi movies, you'll often see the venerable Radio Shack SPL meter being used as a prop. Saw it just the other night in Stargate 1. Apparently, in addition to setting up speakers, it can also be used to detect cosmic rays.

  I've noticed this for years.

  I think they are geneally considered more fashionable and hip.

  They are more aesthetically pleasing looking.

  Many people in the industry use them.

  Apple probably pays for the privelage.
