Oh No!

Nov 08, 2006 13:39

Apple has dumped the Mac Guy from its commercials because viewers hated his annoying hoodie wearing ways and came away from the commercials liking the nerdy PC guy. Mac guy (Justin Long) is described as a "smug little twit" and "just the sort of unshaven, hoodie-wearing, hands-in-pockets hipster we've always imagined when picturing a Mac ( Read more... )

That was the funniest thing I've ever read! [I have a mac, but I don't even use the piece of shit.]

I'm glad you were entertained!
Macs are OK to use really...except for the whole mouse button deficiency.

Also, welcome to Live Journal!

Yes! That mouse! I had to buy a new one because I couldn't take it anymore.

I did an update yesterday, and now it doesn't work. It just sits on the loading screen for hours. [stupid mac]

Oh, and I went to the MAC website and watched those commercials.

Artsy vs. Corporate, indeed.

"succubus loser"? That describes my brother-in-law to a "T". He thinks he's this super computer guy cuz he has a Mac w/dual processors. He made a really big deal out of Mac having "dual processors". But, every time Apple comes out with a new OS he has to take it into a shop to get it working again(after he tries to install the new OS). He's spent about $5K so far on this machine and it still won't do the image rendering correctly that he bought it for. My DELL XPS 400 has almost TWICE the power his stupid Mac has and I have DUAL PROCESSORS too! Mine works great for about a fifth of his cost. The last time he was here he brought some of his stuff and rendered it on my machine. What a jerk.

Yeah, my ex thought he was a super computer genious because he used a Mac - but when it came down to it, he had to get someone else to fix his machines all the time and was constantly over at my house using my PCs.

I admit that his girly orange Mac was pretty to look at - and I'm sure the guy at the repair shop enjoyed it as often as he had it in there. ;)
