Len was a Macbook user, but he would not have done Bitcoin on his personal laptop. It's much more likely he used available PCs in a computer lab on the campus he studied/worked at, which were likely Windows machines. It's also been shown Satoshi (and Len's) activities aligned and they overlapped with a school/academic year. |

Fun fact, he was experimenting with email based image uploads on flickr. That was around the time Satoshi suggested they build an image hosting site that accepts Bitcoin.
It's not a leap to assume Len's brain made the following cypherpunk leaps:
remailer (anonymous email) -> image upload by email -> pay via semi-anonymous crypto currency
Len's own bio says, "I have a very strong interest in the real-world applicability of my work."
