Look who just went Mac shopping! It’s Paris Hilton and her man of the hour Benji Madden.

TechCrunch has a great story that pretty much any Apple Fanboy has to respect. Apparently last Monday, Charlie Rose, host of the creatively named Charlie Rose Show, tripped in a pothole on the way to his studio while carrying […]
