Microsoft’s hilarious response to Apple’s Mac vs. PC series ads
Let’s hope it’s a series.
I love both of these campaigns for two reasons.
- They’re fun to watch - a trait not usually associated with computer advertising
- They signal the further consumerization of technology. Not a one includes a product shot. The gigaherz and gigabytes are still there inside the box, but that’s not the pitch anymore.
We’re all buying technology these days. We’re just not calling it that.
I missed the football game last night – thanks to Steve Duplessie for catching it.
UPDATE: Michael Arrington adds his perspective on TechCrunch.

Pretty funny. Not sure if it really touches the Mac Vs. PC ads though. I hope they make more of these!

Gates was OK. Balmer would be better.
