Have the Mac vs. PC Ads Jumped the Shark?
Are Apple's long-clever Get a Mac ads no longer clever? They've tried to respond to Microsoft's Laptop Hunters ads via their Hodgman-and-Long two-man show, but the results just feel a little stale. The first attempt was kind of funny, but this one, starring Seinfeld's Patrick Warburton as a slimy PC salesman, just feels stale.
Apple's Response to Microsoft's Laptop Hunter Ads? This . . .

Santa Makes a Cameo in a Mac vs. PC Ad
If it wasn't for Santa making a rare appearance in Apple's latest "Get a Mac ad," I probably wouldn't have paid any attention to this holiday-edition commercial.
Nothing like hearing the PC and Mac guy singing Christmas carols together, "He sees you when you're in sleep mode."
It's really cute, check it out below!
Have You Given Up on Vista?
I have to admit, I love the Mac vs. PC ads from Apple. Maybe it's my awkward crush on Apple Guy Justin Long, maybe it has something to do with all the funny remakes or maybe it's just clever advertising.
