Microsoft FTW. Someone said they wanted MS to poke fun at Apple... hell no. I'd be against both OSes/companies if that happened, it's extremely rude marketing. I'd have to switch to Ubuntu.

Very good commercial MS!
They didn't stoop to attacking mac, at any obvious level.
They pointed out the advantages to nearly every demographic. Even demographics normally targeted by mac(which was probably the point )!
It even made sense! Unlike the Seinfeld commercials, lol.

seinfeld commercials did make sence, but you have to be a geek to understand it all

id love to see Microsoft poke fun at Apple, but they havnt gone down to that level yet, but Apple deserve it for making such lies with there ads


and the Apple make up there expencive computers with software stuff is bull $hit, there software is allot cheaper then there hardware, and you can get the same software on pc that does a better job,

plus most mac heads compare Server class hardware that most mac desktops (except the imac) use to desktop pc hardware, and thats really lame, because server class hardware always outclasses desktop class hardware

you could get windows server hardware and run windows vista on it, then it would outclass the mac hardware

but most mac users dont know this and go on about how there SERVER hardware owns most windows desktops,

they really need to update there knowledge about server and desktop hardware

these ads are better than the jerry ones (clearer, can be condensed without losing what the point is, and not a lame attempt to use a big star just based on his face and name)

true their software is cheaper than most windows software of its class
but how is this a con when they put an $80 program suite plus all the apps they do not charge for that are in the OS on your computer with no bloatware.

when is software not cheaper than the hardware?

if it is the same software wouldnt it do the same job? (usually)

actually mostly people that are against macs use this comparing the prices of the machines.
yes you can get server class machines to run vista but they will cost about the same as the mac pro, which is the only normal desktop that apple sells.
the imac is an AIO and is priced on par with others like it, and the mac mini has its place as well.

Great commercial, just shows that everyone has and uses a PC irregardless of who they are and what they do.
Very smart, also liked what they did with the stereotype on the "PC Guy" in the beginning.
