A little ironic - don’t you think?

Looks like Microsoft is using Apple equipment to demo and develop for the new XBox 360 console. Makes sense, as they both use the PowerPC architecture, but still, it is kinda funny as Microsoft, as it part of it’s plan for world domination, relies it’s arch-rival’s gear to get the job done.
Kinda reminds me of those episodes where He-Man and Skeletor would be stuck in some terrible situation that was bad for the both of them, and they’d be forced to work together in order to survive.

Really ironic. I bet that, now, Apple lovers will start saying “XBOX 360 is a mac!! Therefore mac > *” faster than one can say three-button-mouse.

Oh, c’mon now… Microsoft’s arch-rival is NOT Apple Computer, it’s the US Department of Justice and the European Trade Commission. Apple Computer is Microsoft’s R&D department.
