I think that's a Samsung laptop -- mine has that same sorta brushed metal look.

I don't see why they would do that, it would be beyond stupid.

I grabbed the image and tossed it into Paint.NET; there does appear to be some artifact in the center of the laptop lid that could possibly (to my unskilled eye) be (mis)interpreted as the leaf on the top of the Apple logo. However, I don't know enough about this stuff to say anything more than that someone should take a look.

It's unlikely Microsoft themselves even created the site, it was most likely contracted out to a design firm.
