Just wondering (that other thread down below reminded me that I've been wondering this over the past week). Anyone know? Oh and - let's discount Steve Jobs please. That's a no-brainer!
 
Darn...so far no one who I'm crazy about. How about Meryl Streep or someone big (and oh so talented) like that! This is fun...keep 'em coming!
 
Michael and Denise Okuda (Star Trek Writers, and Graphic Artists)
George W. Bush

George H.W. Bush
Many FBI, CIA, and NSA Field Agents

If Drew Barrymore may be a user, why not Tom Cruise? Although when he clicks on the blue apple, it says OS S ... operating system powered by Scientology.
 
Not that I watch Newlyweds but...

Jessica Simpson's husband Nick someone... has a 12" Powerbook.

The majority of Hollywood uses a Powerbook so I wouldn't be surprised if there are more that crawl out of the woodwork!

BA HA HA HA HA! Good one! I thought for sure the Bush's would use PC laptops - I'm kind of disgusted to learn they put their dirty paws on pretty little Powerbooks!

It could be but once I saw it I thought it was more likely that it was specifically designed to meet the intellectual needs of Dan Quayle.

I know these people have Apple laptops, not sure if they are Powerbooks though:

Mark Hoppus-Blink 182's bassist
Moby
Wil Wheaton
Tom Rowlands-Chemical Brothers

Check this article out, although it isn't necessarily about celebrities who use PB's, it does list a lot of them who shop for Apple products.

I know alot of guys in the music world use them. Robbie Williams has a room in his house in LA full or them. It's home recording studio with about 3 power macs in there and he was using a powerbook him self, it was on a show about his new album.
