You may hear rumors that this is actually a super-secret photo of the real PZ Myers, but you'd be mistaken.
You can tell because I wouldn't use that non-Mac laptop, ever.

Let me be the first one to say, "I was wrong." Jennifer asked a few weeks back whether fisheries subsidies were an issue for Ocean Champions, and I rambled on with a response about how it hasn't really been an issue since the original days of the…
Last week we sought to uncover the truth behind the stereotype: Are Prius owners really just like Mac owners? In a non-scientific fashion, we quizzed our readers about several of the most common stereotypes that seem to follow these two trendy groups: They're arrogant, they think they're better…
You know, after over three years of existence and nearly two years that I've been entrusted with the responsibility of organizing it, I thought I had seen pretty much every possible permutation of how the Skeptics' Circle could be hosted. We've had cartoons, soda machines, stories, raucous meetings…
This year has seen an explosion of books written by science bloggers, and it looks like the trend is going to continue well into 2010.
Jason Rosenhouse recently published The Monty Hall Problem and is hard at work on a new title about what goes on at creationist conferences.

A Big Mac fan huh?
Many years ago I owned the 'BlackMac'.
Pretty neat but never did catch on.
My brother had some fun when his Mac roommate made fun of his PC during a moderate-level crash that would have killed his final class paper if we weren't techie enough a family.
Week later, roommate's Mac obliterates itself for as yet unknown reasons with the same results, only...
"Why don't you restart in DOS? Oh, wait, you can't!"
ah yes, the infamous "black keyboard" PowerBook G3.5
This just proves that cephalopods are not dogmatic about the PC v. Mac thing. Being rational rather than dogmatic is more evidence that they are superior beings that are just waiting patiently for us pesky monkeyfolk to self destruct and, thorugh our impact on greenhouse gases, to make the sea levels rise to better suit them.
You're just saying that because you're jealous of the human's thumbs!
Oh, my Ed, just how many strained excuses can I come up with to link to my blog?
Oh, and I messed up an apostrophe. Humans' thumbs.
You realize that, for Mac users (at least for the men), in continuing to use a Mac laptop you run the risk of frying your manly parts thereby interfering with procreation.
On second thought, go right ahead.
Perhaps. But how many people actually put laptops on their laps?
Not only are Mac portables no warmer than many PCs, you can't restart in DOS, but you can restart in single user (or boot to OpenFirmware on a PowerPC) or you could boot to a Darwin prompt.
One day PC users will get tired of their treasured stories, but probably not until after the Christians do.
Oh, really. Between a Mac user and a PC user, which one is usually mistaken for a maniacally obsessed fanatic?
For a moment I thought I was looking at the FSM. I wonder what it would use btw; not that it would need a laptop, being omnipotent and all......
My grandfather weren't no cephalopod dammit!
Whatever that picture is of, it can't be divine. It's not using a Thinkpad, after all.
