It's been a common "dig" in the industry to point at Steve Jobs and say, "If the Mac is so great, why isn't his other company using it?" So Pixar is making the change.
...or I'd be speaking to my computer now just as Captain Kirk does on Star Trek.

In the extra stuff in "The Incredibles", you can see plenty of Macs in the back ground, so some of the stuff they do is on mac and they use Maya to model (I'm prety sure about that) which works on mac and Pixar does do amazing things with whatever computer they use.
You can speak to macs, but not many pieces of software work with it (on OS X, system prefs>speach>speakable items) it's slick, but not many commands. And more than just Kirt speaks to comuters (see my sig
)
