Yes, look for yourself on the custom-build pages of the new PowerBooks...
I always thought it was officially "Der Mac". Mistake? I sure hope so.
(For those of you who don't know a thing about German: There are 3 different types of "the" in the German language, "der", "die" and "das". Well, if you didn't know that, you probably won't care about this anyways... :)

"Heute neu: Das Powemac G6 und die Powerbook G5..!"

That would be a good explanation... but who the hell creates those images? I always thougth there are people at Apple who now the languages for they websites they build. As long as it's not intentional... I think they would lose their German marketshare entirely by releasing "Das neue, unglaubliche iMac!" :eek:
