For print (you probably know this already)
PowerMac (http://www.apple.com/powermac/)
Press (http://www.apple.com/pr/) Go here for hi rez picts, press info, and sometimes QT movies. Not many people know about this part of Apple's website. ;)
For demonstration units, find an Apple Store (http://www.apple.com/buy/), or find an authorized apple retailer.
If you have a large university near you, go to their bookstore. They probably have a PowerMac with a nice Cinema screen, and some applications loaded for you test drive.
As for the advertisements try this.
Vintage and current adds. (http://www.windowssucks.org/commercials.php)
The Apple Collection (http://www.theapplecollection.com/Collection/AppleMovies/index.html)

A short lived add capitalizing on aged laws this one. (http://www.theapplecollection.com/Collection/AppleMovies/mov/apple-g4-espionage.html).
The is one of my favorites.
Remember, when the g4 came out, it was prohibited from being shipped to certain countires, mainly China (http://www.fmprc.gov.cn/eng/).
With revisions in laws the add became obsolete. (As well as many people had no idea what a “super computer” or gigaflop is/was.) Obviously, the USA (http://www.whitehouse.gov/) is not worried about Apple (http://www.asia.apple.com/)s being in China, except when it comes to clone computers.

Wow. I thought I had seen every Apple ad, but I have never seen that espionage ad before. I like it, and wish they did some more of those now.

Pay for it for me! And buy me a Mac while you're at it. I hate this damned PC.
