Apple posts 3 New “Get a Mac” Ads
The Mac vs. PC ads are back for the Holiday Season, and late last night Apple posted 3 new entries into the series on Apple.com. Two of the ads, PR Lady and Podium, take some serious jabs at Vista…and I’m afraid their going to come off as pompous. I think their funny…and true…but [...]
