The footprints on these new Mac laptops is really getting out of hand. Where's my Newton?

No more than 20 seconds ago, I saw this headline on my Gmail homepage and did a leap of joy in my dorm-room. I then called my friends over before clicking on the link. As they were all gathered around, staring at the screen, I clicked it to be confornted with Windows boots on a MacBook. Now I don't think they'll ever let me forget this...
I hate you.
alot.

Cruel, cruel hoax. Damn my RSS reader!
That's clearly a Photoshop. There is no way those Boots would run on that platform. If only someone would come out with Windows XP boots that would run on my MacBook! Size 11 1/2, if you would!
