Celebrity implemented Apple technology on their last 3 cruise ships (Solstice, Equinox and Eclipse). Meaning that the entire onboard iTV is running on Mac minis for guests and AppleTV for crew members all with HDTV sets. Having in mind that there is over 1100 crew members all with their own little cabin and AppleTV and over 2000 guest cabins, all with Mac minis, plus an entire set-up of Apple Xserve to run everything, it's pretty obvious that Celebrity invested a lot of dough in Apple technology. Expensive, but being on Equinox myself as a crew member, I can tell you that it just works.
