Information on the Location
The Macworld Expo is a trade-show with conference tracks dedicated to the Apple Macintosh platform. It is held annually in the United States during January. Originally Macworld Expo and then Macworld Conference & Exposition, the gathering dates back to 1985. The exact location used was based on the 1997 event, where Bill Gates appeared and talked on a big screen in the back with Steve Jobs.
Appearance in the Rap Battle
This is the location where both Jobs and Gates rapped. It was a stage that appeared when Jobs began his third verse, and disappeared after Gates said the line "Well you can still afford a doctor if you bought a PC." It was shown throughout their back-and-forth conversation.
