THANKS SO MUCH!!

I have been looking for the Bill gates VW ad for a long time.. and this site has it!

I am ashamed that they used VW (owning 4 myself) but it is funny.. too bad they pick on what looks like a Sun computer..

Nice link, I haven't seen that particular site before.

Here's (http://www.differentdistrict.com/movies/) another link with lots of Apple related movies. Personally my favourite Apple ad is this one (http://www.wired.com/news/mediaplayer/0,2108,65996-mplay=choose,00.html) ;) :cool:

Glad you guys are enjoying those. I especially love the pentium toasting ones. And the iMac ones are great too with Jeff Goldblum. :)

Fun stuff.

Does anyone know where I can find the video of Steve Jobs giving a tour of the very first Apple Retail Store in McLean, VA before its opening? I used to have that and now its gone somehow from my HD.

BTW, my favorite commercial is the G3 vs PII with the snails. :D

The question is, why did Apple stop advertising its core lineup?

Thanks everyone for the links, these are all great! I didn't actually realize there were so many Apple commercials. I wonder if due to Apple's recent mainstream popularity they'll start making more ads like these good old one! ;) :cool:

Still like Dinosaurs best, though... I think they should make something along those lines today... changing "CD-ROM" and "dip switches" with "viruses" and "spyware"...

Now that Michael Jackson is the news, I was reminded of this commercial (http://www.theapplecollection.com/Collection/AppleMovies/mov/wannamac.html)

Don't go here (http://www.theapplecollection.com/Collection/AppleMovies/) if you don't have several hours to waste. ;)

I wish Apple would do more commercials for their hardware. :(

Internet Help Desk was so dang funny. 'The iMac is the computer for mommies and daddies..." :rolleyes:

Must say that I prefer 1984 over other adverts... ;)

"Internet Help Desk" is definitely humor for those over 30. Or Canadian.

This is minor and I mean no offense by it, but could someone please change the spelling of commercial in the title of this thread? It just jumps out at you when looking at new posts. By the way, I love all the links. It's a lot of fun to look at some of these as a non-consumer:)
