pepsi pays for major commercials. Coke a few years ago decided to divide there advertising budget up, and distribute it locally. They feel local advertising has a bigger impact. This is nothing like that, and it's poor advertising. Yes, getting your name out there could be good, but if everyone already knows it, who cares? Oh, and amp316, Bill Gates does not run Microsoft anymore. It was not his choice to spend $300 million. P.S. JagedSac, I have met Bill Gates at a conference. It was only a couple of sentences back and forth, but he seemed like a nice guy to me. Oh, and he had just presented a hour or so before, and he was a lot funnier then I had expected. To bad 50% of Microsoft products are shit. I primarily us Apples offerings, and there CEO is a dick |
They created several of those crazy CGI 'go inside the coke machine' commercials, within the past year or so.
They are attempting to show that M$ is just a bunch of regular joes and a bunch of coorporate bastards.
And good to hear some anecdotal evidence about Bill.
