Funny, I’ve got one of those MacBook Pro laptops like the one President Obama used to demo the new healthcare.gov website … but mine doesn’t have the Presidential seal plastered over the Apple logo.

OK, I know I'm a geek, but why cover the logo? (WhiteHouse via 9-to-5mac.com - click)

Jeez, those of us using Macs used to be ‘oddballs’, ‘outlaws’ and renegades (‘the elite’ I always used to say, which infuriated some of my ‘but I can build it so much cheaper using PC bits’ friends).

Oh boy, times sure have changed. Now even my best friend from my Radio Tech days is using a MBPro (running Windows, he assures me), is on his third iPhone, and just posted on my Facebook wall this morning that he wanted to buy an iPad duty free but they were out of stock.

My, my. Now we’re mainstream.

I remember Tom Clancy (yup, the writer) advising:

Never ask what sort of computer a guy drives. If he’s a Mac user, he’ll tell you.
If not, why embarrass him?
