How come you always see Tom Cruise only using MAC’s in his movies?... Is the OS Scientology approved ??

No. It's Hollywood in general. Take a closer look and you'll see Apple computer logos everywhere. If it's not an Apple, rarely will you see a logo of any other manufacturer.

Macs are quite popular in the creative arts arena.

24 used Mac's inside of "CTU". I've seen them on a number of shows and movies. And you are right, Mac's are huge with creative folks. For photo's and video production, Mac is typically the weapon of choice.

I like when they don’t have permission to show the logo. The set designers get pretty creative in ways to block the logo from the shot. It is amazing how often in movies someone opens a laptop on a table with something that just happens to go as high as the logo and be just as wide.

Product placement is a big advertising business, and Apple uses it extensively.
