New 'Get A Mac' Ads Released

[toughboy]

We don't want new ads! We want new C2D 13" Macbook! 😡 😡 😡

and then there will be C3Ds and C4Ds... Since when are we so hang up on Mhzs and cores and numbers?.. Just sit back, and enjoy..

Btw, Gisele was wonderful... 🙂

i personally liked the couseling one. "maybe you should come twice a week."

 

[mrcammy]

I've hated these ads since the beginning and the news ones don't do anything to help. Apple could convey the same message more effectively by pushing by just showing the advantages of the Mac and they wouldn't look like a bunch of arrogant jerks going it. That being said, Gisele Bündchen needs to be in more ads.

I agree. On both counts.

Not too sure why Microsoft hasn't come out with their own commercials - considering Windows is the premier gaming platform...

I think that the Better Results ad was offensive, as it crossed the line implicating that being a biological female with emphasized femininity is superior to being a biological male who is transsexual.

Maybe I'm overly sensitive, but why go down that path?

A more direct analogy might have been two transsexuals, a PC one who didn't put any effort or style into it, and a Mac one who did. Using a REAL female on the Mac side is just cheating! 🙂

And Apple product releases tend to be on a Wednesday, on weeks where the Tuesday follows a holiday (Columbus Day).

Thus, even if THIS is the week for new MacBook Pros (which may well precede new MacBooks by many weeks), there's a good chance it won't be tommorrow. Thus, I have been looking forward to tomorrow's howls of anguish for some time 🙂 (And then if C2D MBP's do come this week, there will be the howls from people who think Apple's lowest-end laptop--MacBook--must have the highest-end laptop chip in the world. Even though Core 1 is an amazing chip already by any standards to date.)

"... just let me lie here and depreciate"

I missed it the first time but when I watched this ad I too noticed that line. That is amazing... I am so glad someone else caught that. Probably the best line in any of these get a mac ads thus far.

 

[Soundburst]

Why don't they show these in the U.K?....and also the new nano ad ; it hasn't been aired in the U.K either.🙁

 

[cecildk9999]

I like most of the ads that Apple has done, but some border on the edge of tasteless, with the PC bashing going a bit too far. I agree, though, that the idea here is to generate interest; getting people into stores to look at Macs is where you can make a sale (some people in my classes are talking about getting a mac now that they've had a chance to mess around on my MBP), while giving everything away in a commercial doesn't force people to leave their chairs. That said, 'Better Results' joins my personal favorites list, along with 'Accident' and 'Out of the Box.'

My personal prediction for new MBPs: to be released on Black Friday with the option of a black aluminum case! 😉

I think I'm with the camp that isn't too thrilled with how Macs are being portrayed as being more "fun" than a PC. Yes, some of the ads mention that OS X can run MS Office, but I don't think that it's really enough to convince anyone that you can use a Mac for pretty much any general or specialized computing task (CAD excluded, thanks to AutoDesk)

 

[EagerDragon]

I like this set (all 3) better than the previous ones.
And yes, she is hard to understand, they should have re-shot that part. I still don't clearly undestand what she said, but seeing the obvious contrast of the results over all it was brilliant.

 

[Willis]

CLASSIC! Man, I can keep watching 'better results'

 

[EMAGDNIM]

I love them all...

 

[mautal]

Gisele

i agree with everyone here, gisele was the best😉

 

[Foxglove9]

They are all right.
I think the novelty is wearing off.
I wish they move into a new concept, just to be different and fresh.

I agree, I'm bored with them already too.

I think your going to deep into it. I don't think it was intended to be seen that way.

 

[Reaver]

I dont know about everyone else but theres something about Gisele Bündchen that makes a man (or women) just think happy thoughts 😀 .

 

[iProd]

Where the hell is our PowerBook G5s? 😡




😀

 

[FocusAndEarnIt]

I LOVE Better Results - very awesome. 😀

 

[JSchwage]

Haha! I couldn't stop laughing when I saw the Better Results one. That's got to be my favorite out of all the ads by far.

I'm probably reading too much into it, but in 'Self Pity' when PC looks up, you see the reflection of blue in his glasses. Subliminal Blue Screen of Death anyone? 😉

I really liked the one with the therapist, but you gotta love anything with Gisele
