Saw this on Cnet News, thought it was kinda funny...



"Gateway shows the way to a G4 Powerbook



In a print ad touting digital music solutions, a recent Gateway ad features an urban hipster jamming to tunes on his notebook--a PowerBook G4 Titanium notebook to be specific. Gateway said the inclusion of the Mac notebook was a production error and said the ad ran in just one publication in December before being pulled."



and here's the link:
