Actually there were two MacBook Pro's on stage which were alternated for the different presentations. Unfortunately I don't have a shot where you can see both...

"One more reason to own a mac." It's actually kind of insulting that I'm using the same notebook that Steve Ballmer uses. Hardly a reason to buy a Mac, you know.
However, it turns out that he wasn't the one using it. It was being used by the organisers for the presentations, and Ballmer's happened to be one of them.
Still, it's a rare sight for sure. :)

Consider that:
- MS invested heavily in Apple in the earlier days
- MS Office for Mac is a rather large earner for MS
- You don't choose the machine that you use for presentations like these
Seems like all the nay-sayers are too keen to jump up and shout

- M$ invested (not much) in Apple stock options only when their problems with the justice required them to do so, to calm the accusations of monopoly and it was not in the earlier days, but a few years ago.
- They quite quickly sold their shares, when it calmed down, they don't own any Apple stocks anymore.
- M$ Office is, indeed, a good earner for them, but Apple needs it more than M$ needs Apple.
- Presentations can and will be made with the presentator's machine, at his request. He just needs to ask. Besides, if monkey boy asks something, he gets it.
Well, as far as I know, at this presentation, monkey boy is known to have spotted two Mac users in the audience and yelled "shoot them!".
- It may have run PowerPoint nonetheless.
- Lastly, maybe this Mac was running windoze and PowerPoint.
Oh well…
This is too good an image to spoil it. Let's dream and imagine ballmer was using Keynote! ;o)

Inaccurate.....
"I was there and I have to say that there WAS a leftover Mac from a non MS speaker. The 2 previous presenters used it for their keynotes. Ballmer didn't use a computer at all, it was just an automatic slide."

Hold it, hold it.
I have worked on a presentation given by a Microsoft exec, and any laptops on stage are superfluous.
The presentation is run on two (for redundancy) PCs backstage. There is a Stage Manager who tells these PC operatives when to advance the slides. Ballmer (or whoever) has a clicker, but this only goes to the Stage Manager. In front of the stage, facing the presenter, and covered with black cloth so that you don't notice them, are large TV monitors with the slide on some and notes on another.
My guess is the Apple laptop was owned by one of the stage crew.

If it's real, Balmer himself should be the PC in the Mac commercials.
If it's fake, its hysterical.
If forced to choose, I would pick the latter.

It's just for a presentation somewheres. Who cares? Do you really think he uses a Mac for his own work? Besides even if it was a MacBook Pro running Windows, MS still got their money for selling the software.

Fake? Macs are aweful? Hippie? Holy crap you're out of touch. I guarantee that not any of you 3 have actually used a Mac, and if so, for more than 10 seconds.
Also, anyone that gives presentations regularly, knows that Apple's Keynote absolutely obliterates PowerPoint... hands down, I know, it's my business.
