Popular Mechanics: Why Pixar Is the Apple of Hollywood

"LOS ANGELES — To see the influence of Apple on Pixar, you don't have to look much further than WALL*E—not the cute trash-compacting robot from the studio's eponymous new film (though he does boot up to the Mac chime and own an iPod), but his polished white paramour, EVE. Part iPhone 3G, part Asimo, she's the animated equivalent of the next product that might be unveiled by Steve Jobs, who effectively runs both companies. Except for the laser blaster, perhaps."
