personally, i think these switch ads are horrible. most of the people look like they are on drugs, they act like morons. the first set made me want to take my mac and throw it out, i felt ashamed to be in the same league as the "switch people". my friends watched the one about the dj and her having "tiny" speakers come with it, and then how she went and bought a $200 set with her mac and was suprised why it sounded so good. so lame. these people are basically saying, if you're an idiot, come to the mac, because then you can do things that you were to stupid to know how to do on a pc. one of the major selling points of xp, and you will see this in the store and it does work by the way, is just what the girl who "saved" christmas did, plug in camera, it works, and if you go to best buy, you can test every single camera and camcorder, they all work, and all come with software, and all, cheaper than buying a mac, why are people gonna switch because these ads? nobody is going to switch because of these ads, they will watch them, if they are pathetic and drones, which most pc people are anyway, they may get interested, then they will see the price and the speed and go, are you kidding? they keep doing the "it doesn't crash" i own a mac and pc, my mac has, never crashed, but programs on it do all the time, ever work for a while and then the program just quits, especially on jaguar, flash is just non stop crashing, doesn't really gain confidence. my pc never crashes, never blue screens, never quits programs, rock solid, however, i built it myself and used top notch parts, it still cost me less than a mac, and runs alot better, so when looking at this, i don't see anybody switching, i switched because i saw osx on my friends powerbook 2 years ago, i used it for about 5 minutes and wanted it, i don't see any of the commercials even touching it, somebody wrote, i don't think people care about the os, are you kidding, that's all people care about, they walk into stores, i want that pentuim thing and it has to have windows, great everything works but the os is a piece of ****, doesn't gab people, everything works and the os is amazing you will not leave your seat for hours because you will fall in love with your machine, sales! get some actors and show off the OS!!! i've noticed pc users love the dock, why not show that off. show that you can just put a cd in and it works, don't say it, show it, i see dell commercials that say they work great, burn cds and dvds so easily, blah blah blah, it's all talk till you show it. start walking apple, not talking. and get some people that don't make me wanna throw up.
