One more new Apple Get a Mac ad: Bake Sale

by Matt Burns on October 22, 2008

Apple wasn’t done the other day when it released two new Get a Mac TV spots. Suprise, suprise; this new one stabs at Vista too. Got to say Apple, it’s kind of getting old. We get it, Vista isn’t all that great. Time to move on.

Seriously. Before I thought these commercials were kind of funny. But now it seems like they getting to the point where it seems like they are beating a dead horse. I think they need a new ad campaign.

This is the funniest ad ever. It is clever, simple, and cheap. Microsoft spent 300 million dollars in its ad campaign instead of fixing Vista. That is ridiculous.
MS biggest problem is its own OS, not Apple. And Apple is making fun of it. :) Love it!

I guess your POV on these ads could vary depending on OS preference (if you even have one, but you’re reading a techblog, so you prob do). I too thought the campaign was initially pretty funny, then it started to get old, then I ran vista and it ran fine for me…so they really got old.

Like the political debates, I start to tune out when they talk about the other guy more than themselves.

What’s their problem? Vista’s OK, I use it.
