New get a Mac ads 6 Months ago  
http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/

Steve Jobs might have tried to imply during the fireside chat with Bill Gates that these ads were just having a bit of fun....but come on...the new PR Lady one is vicious (and funny), as is the Podium ad.

Cheers, Phil

Oh that comment at the end of Podium was brilliant.

Same with at the end of Boxer.

Really hit the nail on the head there! Just yesterday, I spoke to two people who were downgrading/upgrading (depending on which way you look at it) from Vista to XP becuase it was so awful.

Meanwhile, did Leopard even make national news??? Vista almost got its own channel there for a while!

There's a reason for that. Good rarely gets on the news but evil always does because evil sells news.

A new internet only ad is appearing on websites...that uses a cleverly combined banner and column advert joined in the ad......

Re:New get a Mac ads 5 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Am I the only one who doesn't like these ads?

I think Mac is a bit dull to be honest, and PC is a much more likeable character.

I do find them funny, but I think they are in quite bad taste, and don't think they really help to promote Macs. I think they just fuel the OS wars, and get Windows users backs up.

Has anyone been over to Apple.com recently?

They've got a nice animated advert on there
