JK Rowling is the most successful author of all time, and while product endorsements aren’t common, she certainly made a point of giving credit to the Macbook Air, Publishers Marketplace reports (via The Loop).

Rowling:

The MacBook Air changed my life. I’ve written everywhere, including some very strange places.

So you could say that her latest book, The Casual Vacancy, would definitely not have been created in the same way had Apple or the Macbook Air not existed. Kudos to Apple, they’ve changed yet another life!

There’s a joke to be made here about the magic of Apple products. Wizards. Harry Potter… perhaps Eric Schmidt is Voldemort? I’ll let you sort out the details for yourself!
