Does Steve Jobs still use a peesee?

I remember hearing a while ago that Steve Jobs used an IBM thinkpad, even though he was working at Apple at the time.

Does anyone know if he still does or not? I wouldn't think that he would now, it would make him kind of a hipocrite.

I doubt it. He probably has a kick ass TiBook.

He did use a ThinkPad running OPENSTEP when he returned to Apple, and continued using it with OPENSTEP/Rhapsody until the Wallstreet PowerBook G3s (the first PowerBook with a 1024 x 768 display) were released from the information I have gotten.

It's also rumored that he uses a Dell when he's at Pixar

I got this info from AppleTurns.com... someone interviewed him about Pixar for some magazine and there was a photo of him at his desk with a Dell desktop on it.

That's what I remember...

Pixar might have been using Dells...

But it's becoming common knowledge that they are migrating to Mac OS X for most of their computing needs! If they are still using PC's it's probably for Maya (since there isn't an Unlimited version for OS X yet).

I would HOPE that by now Steve would be using a TiBook or something instead of a Dull or a StinkPad.
