Title: WWDC 'Get a Mac'

Description:
WWDC 2006:While not strictly a part of the ad campaign, Hodgman and Long appeared in a video prior to the keynote at the 2006 Worldwide Developers Conference. Hodgman's character, PC, claimed to have a message from Steve Jobs, in an attempt to stall Mac development. He starts to go off-topic about his vacation with Steve, but when Mac arrives he says he's just preparing for the next ad and starts to sing the Meow Mix theme song off-key.The Get a Mac campaign is a current (2006-present) television advertising campaign created for Apple Inc. by TBWA, the company's advertising agency. Shown in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand, the ads in the campaign have become easily recognizeable owing to the fact that each ad follows a standard simple template: against a minimalist all-white background, a man dressed in casual clothes introduces himself as a Macintosh running Mac OS X ("Hello, I'm a Mac..."), while a man in a more formal suit and tie combination introduces himself as a non-Macintosh personal computer running Microsoft Windows ("... And I'm a PC."). The two then act out a brief vignette in which the capabilities and attributes of 'Mac' and 'PC' are compared, with PC - characterized as a formal, stuffy person overly concerned with work - often being frustrated by the more laid-back Mac's superior abilities. Some more recent ads have shifted focus away from comparing features of the computer systems to a more general comparison.

Apr 3, 2008 - The "apple should wave the white flag" joke doesn't make sense, because Microsoft needs Apple. Macs still only exist because Micorsoft needs a competitor so it isn't hit with allegations of monopolizing and to avoid infringements on competition laws. Same reason why ten years ago Microsoft invested 150 million into Apple, and why Office was made for Apple. If Microsoft wanted to they could have been the only players in the market, but that is counter productive and dangerous.

Aug 20, 2008 - Not entirely correct.. Microsoft used Apple G5's with a custom video card and custom OS as a development platform the the XBox 360. Apple didn't help very much with this project

Oct 2, 2008 - lmfao look at all the people give that Stiv guy negative ratings, cause they cant handle simple facts.He's telling you the truth, and all the apple fangirls are just funny, get your head out of your ass, apples are just as shit as windows Though admittedly Vista is the worst pile of shit to ever exist. And also, dont consider, a fucking PC, ONLY USING WINDOWS, cause guess what, NOT EVERYONE USES WINDBLOWS, Hello Linux, something good, reliable, and whats that, FREE :O

Dec 30, 2008 - The CPU in XBox 360 is very similar to the G5 (some call it a G6), but Apple doesn't make them, IBM does.Did you know that when people first got to try Xbox 360 games, they played them on two Power Mac G5's?
