I agree.  I think Gates has become pretty funny the way he is openly willing to make fun of himself.  As a guy who has switched to OS X for everything my family does at home, I think the ads aren't bad and I bet they get better.  I guess I'm just too old because I also think Jerry is still pretty funny.  They are building an entire theme here and I think it's pretty entertaining.  The ads won't get me running towards Vista, but I doubt I am their target audience.

I hate to be positive here J, but I think it is really funny and let's give some credit here- Bill Gates willing to make fun of himself? That is a huge transformation from the days of the Evil Empire and lying in court!!!!

i think the goal is to get people talking about it so they aren't talking about Macs anymore.  which from that aspect, seems to be working.

That's still not going to fix Vista's problems now is it?

If you haven't seen the new commercial, its on Microsoft.com....at least the web version is longer (4 minutes) and stranger than the last. Haven't seen it on TV yet.

 

Fortunately no adjusting of the shorts, but there is a new sign, and a pedicure, and plaid.

 

And more leather.
