in the OC every computer in there is a mac and they dont hide the logo. Through out all the seasons you see at least a few in every episode theres macbooks, alot of imac g5s and there used to be an imac g4 also.

I can, Casino Royale. It was a 2 hour long commercial for Ford and Sony, IICR.

^^what he said. Didn't read through.

you're so right, i aint a fan of bond movies, there was always product placement in bond ovies but this ones takes the cake, i hated it.

can anyone think of a movie with more product placements than talladega nights: the ballad of ricky bobby?

Casino Royale. Every piece of electronics in that movie was Sony and they really flaunted it too, they'd do close-ups of the logos on phones and cameras. It was so much it was almost unpleasant to watch. Also if you look when he goes into the camera room in the Caribbean hotel you'll notice that all the recording equipment for the hotel is Blu-Ray.

Edit: Sorry, I missed where other people mentioned CR.

Speaking of Dexters' MBP - does anyone happen to know what the cool sound is when he closes screens/the computer down? It's very "24"-ish. I want those sounds. :cool:

that film was "Accepted", with Justin Long of "I'm a Mac" fame :)

I have a good feeling that apple wanted that movie to have all macs in it and probably spent quite a bit especially because of him being the main character in it. If I remember right the pc mac adds started airing around the same time that movie came out too.

Premium channels (HBO, SHowtime, etc) tend to not cover anything(in every sense of the word).

I loved the ads from a few years ago, before the intel macs came out. The logos were covered, but you could still tell it was a PowerBook and yet, in the picture it was running windows o_O?

I get why they cover the logos, but it is an entertaining game for my friend and I, see who can name the hardware the fastest when they cover the logo (and this includes machines other than Apple)

Probably because apple isn't paying the show advertising money. So, in order to incentivise apple to do so, they cover up their logo.
