| Thatmax said: Atleast the mac ads were telling the consumer something about the product, the PC ads kinda are just microsoft not combating any of the accusations thrown at them by Apple and just trying to change their image. |
The information inside the Apple ads is not what makes them memorable. I would bet over 90% of people that watch the Apple ads couldn't recall any of the relevant info inside the ad six months later, but many could still identify there was a chubby nerd guy and that actor from Die Hard as representations of the respective brands. Microsoft is cutting to what matters in advertising, and that is either a catchy line or catchy image, not an infomercial.
As far as the booths go, that is some funny stuff. I hope they show up in front of Apple stores where I am so I can bring the popcorn and watch the two brands beat on each other.
