You will never be able to install MAC OS on your custom build PC because then Mac couldn't make there 50% mark up on parts. Buying a Mac is like a buying a Gucci handbag. You could use a regular handbag but you have money to piss away, so why not Gucci?

I do think Apple needs to adopt Blu-ray.

It's made by Sony, it's good for gaming, and it plays Blu-Ray....

Am I the only one putting this together?

This is still not newsworthy.

I think these are very effective commercials for the public at large. Also, it's just a commercial .

"speed, a big hard drive, and a good gaming computer"

Then why did they get a laptop? :P

The kid needs a haircut, and she needs to stop wearing those pants.

Somebody should tell this self-absorbed soccer mom douche that the days of pissing money just to impress the neighbors are over.

I'd like to see Microsoft against Linux some day... mac vs. pc is such a boring competition with all of the same arguments as a decade ago.

Hey kid, nothing wrong with having a pink laptop. Little tip : the ladies will like you for it.

It is rather amusing going through the video frame by frame:
- Antivirus products adorn the shelves around the laptops, but they blur out the product names.
- All walls with faces, and "Best ___" are obscured.

Oh and the expression right after the MILF says "They are Pretty" is hilarious.

I would like to point out all these adds have people buying laptops that are freaking huge with a whoping 1-2 hour battery life they aren't functioning laptops they could just get a desktop shave a couple hundered off the price or double the preformance. these people won't use the laptop like a laptop but rather as a desktop replacement, in my mind that is a total waste, i don't know anyone who buys the 15-17 inch laptops except old people who don't go anywhere.

That was horrible.... Especially without sound

She's a naughty girl :D

I just got me a nice lappy with a nice 17" screenie.
first laptop ever.

Next laptop will be a 18.4" or better screenie. :)

No, I'm not a crybaby that cant carry around a few extra pounds when travelling. people and their obsession with crappy netbooks. pft. wimps.

I hate these as much as the Mac commercials.

PC = Personal Computer. What is a mac then...?

Wait.

Microsoft is pimping a sony made piece of hardware that plays games and Blu Ray movies?

...

Let's think about this for a moment.

where's the "You're getting a Dell!" dood? :P

I want them to do a commercial where they find a laptop with the exact same specs as a Windows one but has Linux installed and is $50 cheaper. But (though they should) they don't exist. Dell's Ubuntu range is often more expensive than their Windows counterparts for no adequate reason.

Let me know when I can install Mac OS X on my AMD PC. I hate Windows but like Mac OS X, but I hate Macs but I like building my own PCs. When I mean build I don't mean hitting the custom button on Dells website.

Actually, I'd rather take a whip and find the people who work on Ubuntu and continuously hit them until Ubuntu is truly user friendly. Not a big fan of Apple and Microsoft now that I think of it.

I guess it's serious when Microsoft indirectly are doing Sony commercials. :-)

And really. Mac's are as 'pretty' as a dental clinic.

They need better actors and a more realistic script.
/disgusted mom: They are pretty!
/confused kid: Let's go to the PC section.

Nice to see Microsoft finally firing back at Apple with a good (if standard) ad campaign.

my roommate has that laptop, its nice but it is also humongus, sure he can move around with it but it ways so much and he always has to plug it in, i charge my netbook every night like a cellphone or something, these laptops could be replaced by better cheaper desktops. sorry.

When did Microsoft start selling PCs?

"This computer needs to be fast, because sometimes we have to look up stuff and then get out the door and get to baseball, finish homework, and done."

This just about sums up both the average consumers computer knowledge and performance needs.

This basecly means that if there werent for games, for most people nettops (with bigger screens) wold be perfect.

Well, at least M$ is getting some press out of these things, but damn, they really do make regular consumer look...ignorant.

10 percent of PC's sold are Macs. That's not a niche.

It's a niche because while it's 10 percent share in the US, it's 3 percent globally. That's pretty much a definition of niche.

"Way too much money dude?" :D
