I was watching Apple’s latest Mac TV ad and just like previous ones in the series, these ads make me somewhat pity the PC guy and I side with him. The Mac guy seems too snobbish and somewhat inconsiderate. Does anyone else get the same feeling? I think Apple made a poor choice of PC and Mac characters… and I seriously think it’s about time they stop these annoying ads!
Here is an example of the ads I’m talking about:

Ya the ads are really quite untasteful. Comes across as very snotty. But most mac users are pretty snotty anyway so it fits I guess.
I completely disagree, these ads are brilliant! They hit the nail right on the head in highlighting everything that is wrong with PCs in a fun way. I don’t think Mac users are snotty at all, they simply to not conform to the mainstream. From an ease of use standpoint there is no comparison between mac and pc.
I’m in support of anything that lets me see more John Hodgman.
haha.. i actually thought these ads are written quite well.. and the fact that they’re true makes it even more funny. I have to say that I’ve used PCs for many years and after recently giving OSX a try, Microsoft really is no competition on the user-friendly and usability aspect. I’m actually able to do more on OSX after using only a few months.. than on a PC. =P
I’m a Mac user, I enjoyed the humour for awhile but its probably time they changed it up. At the same time the ads are clever. The operating system for the Mac is light years ahead of the competition.
Mac rocks…just admit it…:)
they r stupid ads. i dont even like go to blog sites that support stupidapple. its lame as hell. there is million things you cant do with a Mac that windows can do. compared to few security flaws windows has. People are stupid. all they have to do is normal maintainace to their PC just like a house.
