Why is the PC laptop in MobileMe ads so ugly?

I think they could have found a better one.......

Cause it's an Apple ad?

Why would you want to do that for your competitor?

Does this question really need to be asked?

They don't want a good looking PC (Please, NO "all PC's are ugly" comments) to steal the spotlight.

Its to make the mac look better. Its not an actual laptop but a photoshop to represent the "generic" pc laptop.

Notice the exaggerated bezel with rubber screw tops, the huge hinges, and the massive feet. Also the off center trackpad. All to make the macbook look better.

Its marketing 101.
