The variants (on youtube) are funny :)

The original: well, I think they are funny to look at for people who already own a mac. But I don't know if it's good marketing. Maybe even the opposite. The ads make fun of the people who they want to make the switch. I don't think that works. They should have just focused on the positive points of a mac and not waste time ridiculing all pc users.

You're right. In fact, that's what the whole (political) system in the States is build around isn't it? Not taking your audience very serieus :wink:
