Timeless principle

Give a familiar status ritual a new source of power.

The idea

Redefine the business power lunch around what a person can accomplish with a portable Macintosh.

Why it works

The title promises corporate theater, then Apple shifts attention from who is at the table to what one person can make. Portability becomes independence rather than a technical feature. The joke updates the image of business authority.
