Laptop Hunters #5 – Lauren and Sue

Ok here it is!:

Anyone notice that she was looking at the $1600 MacBook and the price tag was for the MacBook Pro?  If that is the case then isn’t the MacBook within her price range?  I’m just sayin’!

What are your thoughts?

Here it is everyone.  I’m not even going to say anything.  I’m just looking forward to what all of you have to say.

Ad #3 is out. Lisa and Jackson

Here you go.  Let the debate and the carnage begin!

You have to admit this one is a little on the “cute” side.  But one question I have….”BLUE RAY”? Does anyone out there really care about blue ray anymore….just checking.

Microsoft shows 2nd “Laptop Hunters” commercial

Well here it is everyone.  Have at it. :)

Looking at this one I have to say that it seems WAY more scripted than the first one.  I am really impressed by the great banter the last commercial caused.  By all means, keep up the healthy debate everyone!

Commentary on Microsoft’s new ad

Well here it is folks.  Microsofts new ad targets the price aspect of this comparison.

I think this is a really good campaign.  Well done, and nicely edited.  People who are not well informed about each platform will find this ad pursuasive.  However, I have one problem with it.  Each time I watch this I can barely figure out what this ad is about becaue Lauren is soooooooo hot!

Sorry just had to say that.

Oh No You DIDN’T!

In a move that you have to admit is AMAZINGLY hilarious, Microsoft has parked an “I’m a PC” kiosk in front of an Apple store.  Wow!  You got to love the fray that has insued from these ads.  Appleinsider reports…

Microsoft Corp., engrossed in multi-million dollar marketing blitz to counter comical ads from rival Apple, Inc., is now using a portion of its budget to fuel guerilla retail tactics near the Mac maker’s stores.

AppleInsider reader Tom submits the following photo, which shows a large Microsoft-branded kiosk parked outside a shopping center-based Apple retail store.

“It’s a friggin booth where you can record your own I’m a PC video,” he said. “This is outside the Apple Store, Bullring, Birmingham, England.” He added that a trio of Microsoft staffers will be on hand to turn patrons off from the Mac for the next three days.

The move is an extension of the Redmond-based software giant’s $300 million advertising campaign aimed at cleaning up the image of its Windows Vista operating system, which has been tarnished at the hands of Apple’s long-running “I’m a Mac, I’m a PC” ads.”

“Upload yourself” Windows Ads

Here is the latest in Windows “I’m a PC” ads.  I think this is a great idea, but they had better be careful and selective of who they put up on these.  All the same…I kinda like this idea.

If only Microsoft would make commercials like this…

Saw this on 9to5mac today.  I must share….

I can barely comment on this…until next show

I am just going to put this up here and let you all leave comments.  We’ll talk about this later.
