Proving once again that having a smug, hipster stereotype and a clumsy, dork stereotype in broadcast ads, running so frequently so as every person on the planet could claim one showing as their very own, is a much better way of spreading half-truths and misinformation about your competitor. When you're perpetually stuck in last place, that's SOP. I suppose that's why Apple ads remind me of McCain ads, divisive and slinging piss and vinegar everywhere, while the recent "I'm a PC" Windows ads come off much more inclusive, positive and hopeful, like a certain other presidential candidate. I know who I'd vote for, based on that criteria. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
