Is it me or are those training wheels on his bike in the photo bottom left? 😀

No, that's one of those rigs that lets you ride a bike in place (holds the rear wheel up off the ground).

Not sure if you were being serious...
 
phish.....the ipod completely changed one of their concerts....they said in an interview they got every concert they ever played loaded on to their ipods and the re-discovered some songs they forgot they had and played them all at the next concert. they also set up a mac tent at one of their festivals 2 years ago with like 15imacs that let users download songs from the phish catalogue and burn them to cds for free (the line was hours long)

also, beck talked about his in an article in the NYTimes magazine a few motnhs ago, and i saw him in concert the other day and they used one on stage to control the "dj aspect" of it
 
I thought they used apple displays in 24, but it always seemed that they were running "hollywood OS".

I don't know if anyone watches 'The adam corolla project', but he has a few macs that appear on the show.
 
Whilst not really a celebrities computer I have seen a bunch of macs in TV shows!

Spooks- every single machine in Spooks is a Mac. complete with iSights.
Coronation Street- Dev used to have a G3 iMac in the background of his old flat
Last rights- The prime ministers right hand man had his laptop stolen, spent 3 episodes getting it back. t'was a 17" PowerBook
Hollyoaks- Mandy and Tony Hutchinson hav what seems to be a 14" iBook

funny. Spooks is mean to be slick stylish. Dev is the "rich" one of the street. same for Mandy and Tony.
Man in the UK the media are really giving Apple this rich and stylish culture 😀
 
I've seen A LOT of Macs in movies.

In "13 Going On 30," there's a quick shot of what appears to be an eMac in the part where Jenna goes back to her parents' house. I thought that was really cool.

Now I don't know if you're being serious?
It's not a training rig it's just a stand.
 
Adam Levine of Maroon 5 is a apple user, dug up a pic....

Jamie Cullum went up in my books when he appeared in the new (and pretty lame) magazine Live! He said he always takes his PowerBook with him and that most of his albums are recorded on it. he just plugs in his keyboard and away he goes, mashing those keys as he does.

Also an avid photographer.

am I considered a celebrity? I use a Mac!

Also, every time a sitcom has a girl with a computer in her bedroom, it's always either a iMac G4 or and iMac G3. 😛
 
Andre 3000 from outkast is a big user. when i was in the ATL Lennox mall apple store....he was in there buying everything he saw..it was so cool.


when they brought out a stroller for his stuff i was like damn! he had it all in there.

I was just curious what celebrities are known to use Apples?? And if their are pictures of celebs with their Macs?? I watch the L-Word religously, and they can't shoot a scene without an Apple Computer in it. (It's Awesome)

Billy Corgan uses an iMac G5, in fact on his last tour he had it on stage with him. Zach De La Rocha (former lead singer of Rage Against The Machine) I spotted in an Apple store in Los Angeles looking for a computer.
 
Wow, I don't know how you guys find out that celebrities are using these computers, but it's a neat list.

Can I stalk Orlando Bloom, Zach Braff and Dominic Monhogan to see what computers they use?

I always keep track of Macs I spot on TV and movies. Latest movie spotting was Elizabethtown. Cinema displays out the wazoo, Orlando's (but he threw all his stuff out!), the boss's secretary and the boss (Alec Baldwin). The only non-Apple computer I remember from the movie was the receptionist's monitor at the hotel.

Douglas Adams was a big Apple fan (it's said he was the first person in the UK to buy one – how accurate that is I don't know but he was certainly a very early adopter). Stephen Fry is also another devotee.

What I've heard is Stephen Fry got the first Macintosh in the UK, and Douglas Adams the second.
