Article on Wired reinforcing the cliche that in TV and Hollywood dramas, the good guys always use Macs and the bad guys use Windows. In the series 24 the standard model applied - except there were two disconcerting exceptions. One goodie starting using a Dell PC; and worse, a Mac user started to look like a traitor. However, to the relief of Mac lovers, the Dell user turned out to be the traitor. "The producers of 24 pooh-poohed the idea of any connection between computing platform and moral fiber." Who're they trying to kid? Amusing discussion (and pictures) on Metafilter.
