Tip of the Day
To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.

That would be Syndrome's computer, not the Incredibles'.
And I thought all evil geniuses used Windows.

Not surprising at all. Does anyone else think that Mr. Incredible looks a lot like a buff Steve Jobs?

I noticed that the headphones used by the invisible-girl/daughter in a couple of shots are VERY similar to the Bose QuietComfort 1 headphones (see pic here - http://en.red-dot.org/316+M5d7f74f3f65.html). I own a pair and they are the most gorgeous cans I have ever seen. Apple used to sell these (replaced by the nowhere near as gorgous QuietComfort 2) and were still using shots of the QuietComfort 1's in advertising/webpromos long after they had stopped selling them.

Near the end of the movie when they get the magazine with the featured cover story (Business Shriek, I think) there is an add for Apple computers on the back cover.

Near the end of the movie, they pickup a magazine with their pictures on it. It's VERY, VERY fast but you can see the back of the magazine for an instant. Freeze frame this and you'll seed it's an add for a computer and there's an Apple on that page.

This is pretty funny... I just flew home from Ireland today and watched the Incredibles on my Powerbook! Didn't catch the keyboard thing though. And my battery died halfway through the movie, so I was forced to watch the bad plane flick. Sigh.

That shifted QWERTY row would be a "oaun un rhw ass". At least the important words are still spelled correctly.
