The Macs are computers of convenience -- Apple supplied
the Twin Peaks folks with a whole mess of them at (I believe)
no charge.

Apple sometimes does some odd things to support the arts.  One
case I saw was supplying equipment for some current work in
composing and performing ... um, guess it should be called
something like modern experimental electronic music.  This
and Alan Kay (sp?) turned up at a more-or-less private concert
that I went to a couple years ago.
