   I could argue against that, but really, should I?

   Badass commercial.
   Brilliant metaphors.

   Hate the fact that it’s a fucking mac commercial though.

   i use both mac and pc’s and i like them both. I find myself preferring Macintosh however. Even IBM, one of the first companies that helped microsoft prevail by using DOS, is giving up and focusing on linux and Lotus platforms

    good choice! You see, loads of people change from Windows to Mac, but I never heard about somebody who changes from Mac to Windows.

    No Microsoft insult with their lack of customer support, a poorly implemented OS & a monopolization of the market.

    @guitarded401 are you a vamp per se?

    @papawx3

    that’s grammar….not grammer

16. Nerdfightergirl4 on December 28th, 2009 11:56 pm

    Your argument for mac is great! Swear some more, it really sells the prouduct. At least MIcrosoft doesn’t insult in their commercials, Mac has done it since, when, the invention of Macs?

17. Nerdfightergirl4 on December 28th, 2009 11:56 pm

    Nice grammer,mac

    Very prophetic indeed. Most people didn’t “get it” at the time, but we all understand now what was meant. No longer are the masses dependant upon the mainstream media for information{or misinformation as is the case}. Bloggers are EVERYWHERE now. They have lost their grip on the proproganda machine, and it is unlikely they will ever get it back. The old publishing/media empires are dying by a thousand tiny pricks {I guess that is how they refer to the bloggers!}.

20. phildip on December 28th, 2009 11:56 pm

    that hooters waitress saved the world! let’s all celebrate by eating at hooters on jan 24! and buy macs!

21. mariofan9012 on December 28th, 2009 11:56 pm

    so THATTTT explains why 87% of mac users have windows also.

22. guitarded401 on December 28th, 2009 11:56 pm

    This is an “allusion” per se to George Orwells book “1984″.

    Hey, check out this new iPhone app called the DUMMY QUIZ. It is available in the iTunes App Store!

    Hey! We were watching that!

    I said “general consumer” - You know? The kind of person who won’t do any research before buying a computer, and hasn’t got very much technological knowledge.
    There is less chance they’d know what to do because they wouldn’t have used it before! That’s logic; chances are they would have used Windows before.
