This reminds me of reading Tom Clancy’s “Rainbow Six” many years ago after being a little familiar with the Game. I recall one of the characters doing some espionage work and unpacking his explicitly stated Macintosh PowerBook. Clancy was an avid Mac fan and I feel like a lot of us at the time (especially the rough days of the mid 90s) it was a nod to other Mac fans.
I never finished the book, I wasn’t really into Clancy.
