New Get a Mac ads (2009)

Wonder how many of these there are now? Started in 2006. The three new ones are Customer Care, Elimination and PC Choice Chat (above). I love that they didn’t bother put with mic cord or phone cords. If you’d like to make these stop… get a Mac.

Get A Mac: Surgery, Sabotage, and Tech Support
In the first new Mac ad, PC is getting surgery in order to receive all sorts of upgrades to run Windows Vista. Tech Support involves the PC receiving a camera upgrade (via masking tape to the head) so that he can do important business things like videoconference, only to find out that Macs come with built-in iSights now so they don’t need to upgrade. In Sabotage, the PC has decided to sabotage the commercial altogether and replace the Mac with another actor who says everything the PC wants him to say. [Infinite Loop]
The men and/or women responsible for writing these commercials are the very same people that played Keep-Away with the fat kid’s hat a lunch time in the 7th grade. Until he cried.
Chimps with whoopie cushions
I’m sorry about the guy that got his face, foot (and balls) ripped off by the monkees… but I find chimps in TV commercials hilarious. Honorable mentions: FedEx (We don’t get French benefits?) and Dairy Queen (MooLatte).
