“a guy with an open shirt, no tie and a manageable pile of papers”

I haven’t tried to use a PC in a foreign language for some time, but I know that for a long time, non-Roman characters (like those in the Japanese or Russian languages) displayed much better on a Mac than a PC. It would not surprise me in the least if Mac was the computer-of-choice for most non-Roman-character-language-speakers.

Why you think it’s ok for Bush to have open shirt and not for other leader. With the mentality like yours you should not be allowed to write articles. Get a life.

I wouldn’t call Medvedev a Mac user as much as a rabid populist.

Hey, don’t be hating on Russia. Glad to see Medvedev has some good taste in gadgets.

Thanks for the link! It’s “Unofficial,” not “Unoffical,” but no worries.
