And as for Mac-spotting lately...anyone notice the three MacBooks/MacBook Pros running the music (one assumes) in the opening scenes of House yesterday? House has had Macs/Apple LCDs forever, but that had to be one of the more obvious instances of product placement in the show.

We were watching Jurrasic Park (first one) yesterday as we wanted to test our new projector and sound system fully and it was nice to notice that they ran the entire Jurrasic Park off from Apple Quadras clap.gif

Check that link, please. There seems to be a "%20" (space) at the end of it that confuses the server. It works if I cut and paste and also remove the 'space.' wink.gif

OTOH, did she mention a Mac somewhere?! blush-anim-cl.gif

OK, very nice looking young lady (I hope) and apparently quite intelligent, but as one poster (so very few) said, "Looks fade." There is a natural reason men and women find each other 'interesting.' But life is more than just 'reproduction,' IMHO. But I doubt that my opinion makes any difference for these kinds of "Top 10" lists, anyway. Oh well... wink.gif It's a shame that intelligence is not often recognized unless there is a an attractive person wrapped around the brain. smile.gif Fortunately, intelligence is recognized enopugh that we have honored those like Einstein! And he was also married, so he must have been 'attractive' to that lady (who happened to also be quite intelligent, BTW).
