Always nice to see another quality Mac-related host out there!</p><p>With regard to the ad; I think it may actually turn out to be brilliant, after a fashion, if they continue to run a campaign of similar clips. I don't think it's necessarily directly about Vista, but more about making Bill Gates human (I think macanuck hit the nail on the head), and someone people can relate to/with. If (it's a big 'if', I know.) they (the ad agency handling it) can manage to do that, along with top-notch personalities like Seinfeld, it could actually make a sizable dent in the general public impression, and benefit much more than Vista in the process. In addition, I don't think it was such a coincidence they chose Seinfeld to kick it all off with: Remember all his Macs in the background on the show, dating all the way back to the Classic, DuoDock, etc.?</p><p>At any rate, it'll be interesting to see how they fare, and whether (or possibly not) they bungle it along the way. ; )</p>MacsterSat, 06 Sep 2008 18:51:03 -0000
