Would be interesting to know if the store is still displaying this, or other divx/xvid's on there.
How would showing a crappy xvid rip show of the fancy high res screen that can probably display bluray content (or atlest HDDVD/Blueray rips) :P

Re: John Lewis using downloaded movie rips to show off their macs
Someone is gonna be for it when the information hits the news stands!
Wonder if the Sun will pay for the pictures, sure they can come up witha suitable headline!
