I remember noticing that in the movie Robocop II they substituted a little skull and crossbones for the evil robots little Apple Icon. (The MAcs have a little apple in the corner, but the evil dude in the movie has a little skull and crossbones or something like that). Thats not to say that they didn't include amigas for some background systems? Alot of the graphics in the background could have been any system. But the robot's viewscreen overlays were definately macs.
