Microsoft's Vista an Easy Target for Apple

In addition to Vista's incessant functionality and compatibility problems, they're getting slammed on the advertising front. Their short-lived attempt at a humorous campaign with Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld was bombarded with negative press and question marks. People didn't understand the humor and blasted Microsoft for their poor attempt to be clever. After all is said and done, what's actually funny is that Microsoft paid Jerry Seinfeld $10 Million for his appearance in these short ads.

What their campaign opened the doors for was nothing less than another "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" ad from Apple poking fun at Microsoft for their $10+ Million strike out. I hope Microsoft has a rebuttle to keep this war alive, but Apple wins the battle once again. Check it out....
