That's what one site recommended after I googled for it. I can't verify it though - the only person I've seen with a powerbook around here is awol :beam:

that's not the font on the latest PowerBook. (looks down at keyboard)

I think that Apple uses a customized font for most of their typefaces (whether it be print advertising or on products)
