Al Gore wins Nobel Prize for not using PowerPoint

OK, well not quite, but there should be a prize for that. Al Gore has actually been jointly awarded the Nobel Peace Prize alongside the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) for their work on raising awareness of global warming and climate change.

Gore’s film, An Inconvenient Truth was mainly put together using Apple’s Keynote application, the company’s answer to the evil that is Microsoft PowerPoint. Perhaps this isn’t surprising, as in addition to Keynote obviously being superior to PowerPoint, Mr Gore is actually a member of Apple’s Board of Directors.

An Inconvenient Truth was a great documentary film and has just this week been cleared to be shown in UK schools, on the condition that the audiences are made aware of nine scientific errors in the film, and have it made clear that there is “a view to the contrary”…

Apparently, now he might actually make it to the White House, perhaps he’ll install iMacs in the Oval Office.
