Brilliant. Although Eve would probably make even more sense.

Eve has been done on iBooks before, to good effect: http://www.applefritter.com/node/3453
The double entendre of Apple's Snow White designs makes this Macbook all the more enjoyable:

was rumored to be the apple that Turing ate to take his own life (I know that the real reason was because the Apple was designed to be an educational machine, but the rumor persists as an urban legend). Poisoned apples indeed are in both stories so the enhancement is appropriate... but is this truly in good taste?

Except Eve ate the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.

in different sects of different religions there is different terms for what was what (thanks translations)
so there will be multiple ideas of what was eaten.
hence the snow white being better... we all know for a fact that SHE ate an apple.
and no religion being put in it, makes for no religious bias/love/hate.
i really like this idea...

I think we can all agree that there are a number of themes that the artist could have gone with, some religious and some not. Another would have been a William Tell theme with a kid under the apple and an arrow through it. What, I think, we can all agree on is that, in this case, the artist did an excellent job implementing the concept and that it looks beautiful.
