Did you know that you have something in common with Russian President Dmitri Medvedev? Yes, you both have dashing good looks and control of the largest country in the world, but I was referring to something far more personal.
I refer of course to these pictures from President Medvedev’s latest Dungeons & Dragons session high-level government meeting where it’s revealed that the world leader is a Mac user, sporting a brand new MacBook Pro. This isn’t that surprising: we knew that Dmitri is a tech nut: he was sporting an iPhone last year, well before they were actually available in his country. And he posts occasional videoblogs on his website (not recorded on the MacBook’s iSight, though—he keeps those more personal posts for his LiveJournal account under the name lonelyprezdent15).
Personally, I’m relieved to know that should I ever have to brush off those four years of high school Russian upon running into President Medvedev at a state function of some kind, I will at least have something to talk about. Вы любите Макинтош? Я тоже!

Молодец, так держать!
(Это обоим, Дмитрию Медведеву и Dan Moren) :)
And yet he uses that ugly-ass mouse in one of those pictures.
On another note, in one of the pics, he is seen walking with his dog. Is this a presidential perk? They always show presidents walking around with their dogs. What the hell does that mean? Oh, look at the president, he is an animal lover, he has dog, loves dog, mates dog, eats dog.... Oh wait...
Мне три!
I'll bet Putin's a PC.
Я тоже!
I bet Putin and Medvedev planned he invasion of Georgian Republic on their Mac.
Wonder if they have Mobile Me service so they can share war plans with their pals.
I wonder who got their laptop stolen so he could have it.
