In the Tom Cruise flick The Firm you can see him searching the company's networks on a Mac LC, and you can hear floppy disk access in the background. Oh brother. Some exec probably said, "It doesn't sound like a computer. Add that clunky noise that mine makes."

mac in movie

Seinfeld also had a duo at one point (laptop that you plug into a slot and it turns into a desktop).

Office Space uses macs, but puts fake DOS and windows screens on them (the movie is about how much corporate life sucks...dont want macs to be tarnished there). The office space dvd starts with an os 7-9ish gui that actually looks like you've got a mac tied to your tv.

Oh and one sex and the city her 'book breaks and she takes it in. They have an awesome scene where this tech with a cube and 22" cinema display help her out, and bash her boyfriend for messing with it. He knew pc's, and this was NOT a pc.

and the Ultimate:

Star Trek IV
Kirk and pals go back in time for whales. Scotty and Sulu go to some engineers to get supplies. Scotty gets on a Classic and picks up the mouse..."Computer?"...."Hello Computer".
If they only knew.

The President's daughter has an iBook on her bed, and Carmen is using a TiBook in a padded steelcase on the Island of Dreams. I could not see the screen on either computer.

MAcs in TV

Let's not forget Dawson's Creek. Dawson uses a TiBook in the college seasons for film class and watching DVDs.

In Austin Powers in Goldmember, Austin uses the newer Powerbooks running OS9 and Goldmember's time machine includes an Apple Pro Keyboard.

An iMac can be seen in Road Trip

in the comic ZITS, Jeremy has a computer that looks almost like an iMac.

There are a few iMacs and I think a cube in Jay and Silent Bob Srike Back. I think they are running OS 9
