These things become obnoxious after a while. Apple needs a new way to brand themselves. They just aren't funny anymore. Come on, Apple! You've only been playing these ads for like 3 years! It's time for a change in style.

I love these ads. I just saw the one I linked on TV and had to find it and post it.

Some of the Apple Ads in this format are better than others. The newest ad made me laugh & brought a smile to my face. So to me it's a good one!

The new ads are definitely funny. However, what's more amusing is watching PC fanboys burst a blood vessel on response to them

Ok... you just blew a hole in the commercial.... or was it intended, maybe?

The most stupid thing is that both the "Mac" and "PC" are PC's. Apple is wrong!

Yeah, what's up with that?
Are we so clever, or are they so stupid, or are they just stubborn, and know it,
but just too far on with the Mac thing, that they just cannot acknowledge that that is wrong? (or might be wrong)

While I also grim at the people who call it "pc", if you think about it, there is no other name to give them besides going with the companies name...which I don't think would work out so well!

As for this commercial, it's pretty awesome!

All that matters is that they're still effective. Don't forget, you and I are not the target audience. Once the market indicates that something else is needed, I'm sure Apple's ad agency will come up with something new.

Very very true. If the current advertising strategy isn't "generating the numbers"...then it gets "chucked into the crapper"...and something new will be used.
