yeah, i agree, get the job done. like the windows bundled movie and photo programs– they’re great. and besides, everyone knows you have to install all this anti-spyware software on the mac! who wants that?

and every programmer knows that dos is light years better than the unix shell. thats why all mission critical applications run on windows, and not unix servers. duh.

“…while a PC character, dressed in overalls, actually gets the job done.
That would be much closer to real life.”
Right, us Mac people would just spend our time playing mac games?! You might get the job done if the job is downloading drivers or trying to figure out what error 16540087 is.

It’s good to see synergy between the two companies; saying that the mac isn’t as efficient as the pc is just plain silly, though. The ad was meant to be effective, not insulting; it serves its purpose. Getting angry about that is the same as getting angry if you have Sprint or Cingular and you watch the new Alltel commercial.

Saying that a mac is chic is just another stereotype; obviously from someone who has never used a mac. Don’t be afraid clunky laptop MBAs, I’ll still give you a job one day – and teach you how to use a real computer :)
