Came across this one today and I had to laugh. If you’ve ever wanted to dress like Justin Long (the Mac Guy) then you are in luck. Life Clever actually sourced and priced all of the clothing Justin has worn in commercials from last year. Check it out here, I guarantee you’ll be either be amazed, amused, or simply not-impressed at all that someone would go to these lengths (I think I was a combination of the 3).

Get a Mac 'Yoga' AdContinuing along with the latest marketing push, Apple has released 2 new ‘get a mac’ style ads.

The first ad called ‘Yoga’ features John Hodgman and Justin Long (of course). PC guy is in a yoga studio with his instructor, while Mac guy watches. PC is encouraged to breathe out all the ‘bad vista’… And the yoga instructor then proceeds to have somewhat of a nervous breakdown complaining that vista has screwed up all of her yoga class billing. Kinda cute, funny… Call it what you will.

The second ad ‘Breakthrough’ features Mac and PC at a therapist. The therapist explains to PC that he can’t be blamed for all of the problems and compatiblity issues because all of his hardware and software are manufactured by different people and businesses all over the world… By the end of the ad though you’ll notice that PC doesn’t quite get it yet…

The Apple PR machine is at it again. Looks like they are running a new multi-banner campaign on ZDNet and other larger media outlets.

In the video below, ‘PC’ doesn’t like the overhead banner ad noting Vista’s deficiencies… He tries to switch up the ad, but negative ads keep popping up… Until one positive ad appears… About OS X Leopard.

Enough talk, check out the vid below!
