Super Bowl advertisements, at $2.5 million for a 30 second spot, frequently generate as much hype as the game itself. Apple holds a notorious place in Super Bowl advertising history with their 1984 commercial which announced the original Macintosh.

The Super Bowl begins at 6pm EST, February 4th (Sunday). Update: No Apple ad in this year's Super Bowl. Several of this year's Super Bowl ads are available online at cbs.sportsline.com
