New Get-A-Mac Ads: PR Lady, Boxer, Podium [Updated]

Apple has been running a new Get A Mac ad during today's American football games.



The ad includes PC getting a consultant "PR Lady" and once again touches on the trouble people have been having with Vista and references desires of some to downgrade to XP. The final screenshot is of an iMac with the Leopard background.

As of this posting, the ad has not been posted to Apple's site.

Update: Apple has now posted the ad mentioned above, "PR Lady", as well as two other ads: "Boxer" and "Podium."

Mac should be wearing a pink T-shirt.

It has been a long time since the last one, sort of hoped they had stopped them.

I would prefer it if they would just advertise the good points about Leopard rather than bash Vista.

Oh Apple, Why go back to these ads! Make an advert showing people what you can actually do with Leopard like the iPhone ads. Not just stating how much you are better. Prove it!!!

Except look at what the iPhone ads spurred: terrible iPod touch ads that are more like a seizure than informative.

Yeah, they did those for years. Mostly with iLife.

No one cared.

So now they have ads that everyone and their mother knows about, and you say "go back" to the ones that no one remembers? Can you name one? I remember the one with the baby being born and the one with the wedding on the island. I'm probably the only one, though. Can you name any of the others?

Face it, that kind of ad makes the public go all glassy-eyed and change the channel. The ONLY way that kind of software ad is interesting is if you're already a fan of the product being shown. In other words, it's a waste of time. The iPhone ads were a big exception because they showed off multi-touch. That's it. That's the only thing people were interested in seeing on TV. The rest was just noise to most people.
