VIDEO: Apple airs “Laptop Hunter” Counter Ads
Apple has been quick to respond to the “Laptop Hunter” ads by Microsoft. The new series of ads (4 in all) mostly take shots at PCs. From their many viruses in “Biohazard Suit”, to how the only way to say that a PC works right is to include a full screen of legal jargon [...]
Microsoft Ad Fuels Mac/PC Debate – ugh.
You know what I’ve decided I don’t have time in my life for anymore?
The Mac vs. PC debate.

Apple’s 1984 Commercial makes a cameo in “Watchmen”
I just got back from one of the early showings of “Watchmen” today, and was surprised to see that even in a 1985 where Dr. Manhattan has brought electric cars to the masses – the Macintosh is still a revolutionary product, and Ridley Scott still directed the commercial above.
If you’re an Apple fan the commercial [...]

VIDEO: “Get a Mac” – Bake Sale…one too many
Ok Apple – that’s enough. Two ads sticking it to Microsoft about spending money to advertise Windows instead of fixing it was kind of fun. I think it was probably one more than was necessary, but three is pushing it.
I think one ad is a nice response to Microsoft’s ad campaign. Two [...]
VIDEO: Apple posts the GREATEST “Get a Mac” Ads yet!
I’ve always been a big fan of the “Get a Mac” ads – and sometimes I gripe about them focusing on Vista’s problems, but after Microsoft’s recent advertising “attack” on John Hodgman’s “PC” – I was curious as to how they would respond…and they did it in the best possible way….
