    Not only was there an iMac on Jack’s desk, but during this scene Liz and Jenna were talking on their iPhones.

    yeah after that whole universal v itunes thing it is funny to see a Mac on a show from NBC

    Are we going to do this every time a Mac appears anywhere? Tina Fey’s been using a PowerBook on the show since day one. One appeared in her print ad for American Express. iPhone’s have been appearing in the show almost since the first episode after they were released (Tracy Jordan picked on up to make a fake phone call, and Liz Lemon comments on it.)

    I took a photo of Karl Rove on Fox News with a MacBook Pro on election night. I’m really surprised Fox let him leave that branding on a desk all night as he spoke.

    The photo is pretty poor, but if you want to post it, please contact me.

    Yes.

    I did the screenshot as part of a casual segment I’m starting up called “Product Placement Porn”. It’s trivial yes, but I enjoy pointlessly decoding what Apply could possibly expect to gain (other than the dependence of the entertainment industry) from these brand excursions.
