Stupid Mac commercials and PPC temptation

    I am personally tired of the stupid Mac (we deny that we ever crash or have any problems) commercials that compare themselves against PC's (running Windows 98).

    I am tempted to click on their ads hoping to run up there pay per click bill but I would feel a bit guilty and I don't know if the video ads on my.yahoo.com are pay per click.

    Are you sick of those ads?

    I think Macs suck, but I think those commercials are pretty clever. I also think that magnetic power plug is TOO cool. I wish my computers had that instead of the 3 prong thing (how 1970's is that?).

    I am personally tired of the stupid Windows (we deny that we ever crash or have any problems) commercials that compare themselves against Mac's (running iMacs).

    Are you sick of those ads? :D

    Get rid of the spyware, viruses, and crashes in the crappy Windows computers, THEN try complaining.

    I'm still waiting for my first spyware and virus!! er, what is a crash??? :D

    I used to almost believe that Mac's didn't crash until I worked adjacent to a designer who was half way technical (could burn a CD, create some Javascript functions, etc). At least once a week I'd hear a groan coming from his office and he admitted that they do crash. I now work in a corporate environment and there are guys that code Java and Flex and other rather technical stuff and I just heard one groaning today, his OS X system crashed. :mad:

    You would think that a closed, monopolistic company like Apple could get their hard wear to work with their software to work with MP3 player with their proprietery MP3 format. But my free market PC seems to crash about as often without a denial problem. :D
