Fans of rapper 50 Cent know they can find him “In Da Club,” but soon they might be able to find his computer on “da desk.”

50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, is negotiating a branding deal with Apple Computer to create a line of computers more affordable to those in lower income brackets, Forbes reports.

The rapper, whose motto is “Get Rich or Die Tryin’,” is no stranger to the benefits of branding deals, which have helped him to accumulate a relentlessly growing empire. Last year alone, Forbes says he netted $41 million through a variety of endeavors.

I would love to buy a low-cost apple...but I'd have to re-brand over any mark he has on the product. Move over 50 here comes Izzy...OhhhKaay!

What's the latest on this? A low cost Apple macbook could help Apple finally compete with Windows. Whoever's name can make this happen is fine by me - (maybe a variety of celebrities). I actually love the original "hate it or love it" and "21 questions" in case you were wondering. Does anyone else think the apple logo is kinda gay (especially the old colorful one) Not that there's anything wrong with that. Maybe 50 can come up with something cool.
