apple vs microsoft - it's not that ur not cool enough, your just poor enough

An Apple lawyer made a phone call to Microsoft to complain about the ad below because Apple recently reduced their laptop prices by $100.



Microsoft responded by having Microsoft COO Kevin Turner reveal to the audience at a Microsoft conference that an Apple lawyer had indeed called him to complain about the 'Laptop Hunter' ad.

PC World:

"And you know why I know they're working? Because two weeks ago we got a call from the Apple legal department saying, hey -- this is a true story -- saying, "Hey, you need to stop running those ads, we lowered our prices." They took like $100 off or something. It was the greatest single phone call in the history that I've ever taken in business. (Applause.)"

so Apple responded with this ad:



of course, my solution to everyone is Linux, especially if you are not a gamer but use you computer primarily to access the internet or to handle documents - word etc - you will notice that your crappy old laptop, or desktop, will suddenly function quite well. but my evangelizing aside, I find the little ad wars to be sort of amusing, and I can see the point of both sides.
