I think they [M$/Ballmer] do a disservice to both PC and Mac users by having "Lauren" say, "not cool enough". Sure Macs are cool, but you use what works best for you. I think the new Toshiba notebooks look very good/cool, and they were the first to have titanium laptops too, not Apple. My friend has a super-powered Superman Alien notebook that he uses for gaming, ah, working--very nice toy.

You can be cool and use a peecee. You can be a dork and use a Mac.

Lauren is an actress [and a model?] who's appealing to those who are too lazy to figure out what's a good computer for them, or which is really the best value in the long run -- the Mac or the PC.
