Multiple Canadian readers are reporting seeing at least two new Apple "Get a Mac" ads on Canadian TV. The ads have not appeared on Apple's Get A Mac website, but from the accounts appear to be the same ads that were previously spotted in a Tampa Bay Apple Store earlier this month. Readers report the following additional information on the ads:
In one ad, Gisele Bndchen reportedly represents a beautiful movie made on a Mac (iMovie), while the PC (with some proding) shows his movie which is an unkempt, hairy man dressed like Gisele.
In another ad aimed to demonstrate the Mac's capability in the office, both Mac and PC are wearing suits (although the Mac's suit is described as a "fairly good looking hip" suit). The PC ends up on the floor in this ad, and reportedly says something along the lines of "just let me lie here and depreciate".
A third ad seen by the Tampa Bay spotter has not yet [also] been reported by Canadian TV watchers, and reportedly depicts the Mac and PC in a counseling session.
