YouTube Find: ‘Get a Mac’ political parody ad
‘Get a Mac’ parody ads are now making their way into politics? Looks like it. Greg Macpherson is running for Attorney General in Oregon, and someone in his campaign came up with this clever ad:
While I don’t know this guy, and don’t live in Oregon (so I can’t really comment on this politics), [...]
Video: New ‘Get a Mac’ Ad” Office Stress
The latest ‘Get a Mac’ ad went online last night, and this one is much more up my alley than the previous efforts. In this ad PC is stressed out because Microsoft Office 2008 has been released for the Mac, and he’s worried about how the fact that the two are so compatible. Take [...]
Apple releases two new ‘Get a Mac’ Ads
Last night Apple premiered two additional ‘Get a Mac’ ads. ‘Yoga’ is another Vista basher, featuring PC trying to relieve stress after horrible failure of the latest Windows OS.

Video: ‘Get A Mac’ - “Referee”
Apple has released the first ‘Get a Mac’ ad of 2008. This one is a pro-Leopard ad, talking about how it “just works”. While I really like Leopard, and I certainly think it’s better off than Vista - I don’t know if it “just works” is entirely accurate. Until just a few [...]
New “Get a Mac” Ad - Misprint
The latest “Get a Mac” ad is online now at Apple.com - and I’m happy to say its a gem. The campaign came back last month, and I didn’t love the new ads. I didn’t hate them - just didn’t love them.
This one, however, I love. John Hodgemen is one of my favorite [...]
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 [...]
