During this season’s second episode of House, Dr. House bit the hand that furnishes his promotional consideration.
“Why don’t I have a high-def in my office? I’m a department head. Tissue characterization is impossible when the pixels are the size of Legos.”
As you can see in the picture above, the pixels he’s complaining about clearly belong to Dell, a company outed as a paid sponsor in the credits.
I spent countless hours on the phone with Dell tech support this summer. And a certified Dell technician spent about 9 hours in my kitchen, trying in vain to bring my under-warranty laptop back to life, twice returning with defective (or "the wrong") parts. I finally had to mail it to Texas.
Let this be a lesson to all the corporations out there. I don't forget.

So how did the episode end? Did he get a Mac?
The monitor exploded, burning all four doctors.
Actually, in the next scene, they were watching an HDTV whose logo I couldn't make out on my Low-D TV.
He should've got a Mac.
