Mac Commercials

I dunno why people even fuck with Macs

ElvisManson 07-10-2006 11:56 AM

macs are great for "lifestyle" applications. The ads are geared towards people that want to post pics/vid of their family vacations without having to learn much.

Ya, I fuckin hate those commercials, they make it seem like setting up a pc

takes hours, NO, it only takes a few minutes..

I'm a sig whore 07-10-2006 12:00 PM

i was thinking about buying one and decided not to

BigCashCrew 07-10-2006 12:16 PM

I've liked them. I guess they are good for people in the art.

I'd like to pound my foot up the ass of the marketing team who thought up those commericals. They're biased bullshit, especially the one implying that Macs are made for connecting with cameras and printers and PCs aren't.

I've had Macs give me more trouble hooking up an HP printer than a PC, as well as some USB devices.

madawgz 07-10-2006 12:21 PM

hahaha they are somewhat cute tho...

but it doesnt take that long to setup a PC and it doesnt get that many viruses.....

i actually like the commercials even though i think they wildly misinform about PCs ability.
I guess I just think the resident expert at the daily show is funny.

Expensive "lifestyle" machine. Aren't there machines for that specific purpose that's much cheaperthan using a Mac? Anyways anyone to lazy or stupid to learn about operating a computer just needs to get a MSNTV if they want to surf the net.

ridikuloz 07-10-2006 01:43 PM

I use my mac as a paperweight.

LilBro 07-10-2006 01:46 PM

the new Mac Books are priced inline with PC's.

My father knows cobol, fortran etc... and has been working on task/industry specific computers for longer than PC's have existed. He is not great with uploading, resizing pics, anything to do with video or even surfing safely. He currently uses a PC but once the next gen macbook pro's come out he is getting one just so I don't have to keep showing him how to do what to me are extremely simple tasks.

I like Macs but the commercials are lame.

aico 07-10-2006 02:29 PM

Macs Rule. Those commercials are hilarious and right on the money. That's why they have you all so angry right now, because nothing hurts more than the truth.
