Hey guys,

Seems like the Obama campaign likes Macs because aside from having a very sleek Apple-like website, the downloads page shows not only an iPhone but a MacBook Air!

Just thought you could use this for a slow news day. haha

Well, you’re in luck Felipe, today is indeed a slow news day (oh, and you missed the cinema display). Normally we try to steer clear of politics here at Macenstein, (trust us, we’ll never bring up the death penalty again!) but when one of the three people running for President seems to be openly Pro Mac, well we have to report that. We’ve already read reports early on that Obama’s wife bought Barack and his kids MacBooks so they could video chat while on the road, so it looks like there’s a decent chance we might finally get a Mac in the White House.

Now, I’m not saying we should all rush out and vote for the most openly pro-Apple candidate (although people do support candidates for sillier reasons). But I’ll tell you what… if Hillary or McCain is photographed using a NeXT computer, they’ll get my vote for sure!
