Apple Unveils New "Get a Mac" Ad

New ad goes after Windows 7 pretty hard. Trust me.

Apple has released a new commercial in their "I'm a PC" and "I'm a Mac" successful advertising campaign. The new ad is aimed directly at Windows 7, which was just released yesterday.

Which has the better OS: Apple or PC - Tell us what you think.

In the ad, which is entitled Broken Promises, the PC flashes back to previous versions of Windows and with each OS promises "it's not going to have any of the problems my last operating system had. Trust me." Also you'll notice that with each flashback their clothing styles change, and I use the term "style" very loosely there. Check out the ad for yourself below.

What did you think of the ad? Did it go to far? Let us know.

Apple aren't pulling any

Apple aren't pulling any punches are they?

I'm surprised the mac guy didn't just say, "hey pc... F*@K You!" roll credits.

a mac is a pc

Apple sells PCs with a proprietary OS. MS does not sell PCs; they sell software. MS needs a new ad agency to make their commercials. If I remember correctly, the newest Mac OS is called Leopard; the newest MS OS is Windows 7. Ok, Apple beats MS on the cool name part.

MS needs to stop their utterly boring I'm a PC ads and start running a campaign about Win 7 (I'm a Window doesn't sound much better but it has possibilities). If Apple wants to compete with MS, they should stop comparing their hardware/software combo with an MS OS. It makes no sense. While Apple commercials are little amusing, they are nearly as boring. From an advertising standpoint, they both need imrovement.

I choose a PC (from Apple, Dell, HP, and other PC manufacturers) based on price and quality. I buy the OS based on its support for the hardware and software that I use or plan to use. I want commercials to provide info on making those kinds of issues. Admittedly, I really do like to be entertained while being informed. Otherwise, why watch?
