Hi. I’m a Mac. And the new MS Commercials are great.

Posted by: Brandon Steili on Sep 18 2008

Ok - so maybe they aren’t as good as that one - but they’re still pretty good. I like that they turned things back on Apple a bit with the “Hodgman Look-A-Like” and I definitely like that they brought a personal feel to the ads instead of just 30 seconds of “commercial about nothing”.

Anyway, here’s the videos:



Thanks to @TechCrunch for putting this out on twitter. Be sure to tell us what you think of the new videos in the comments. Do you think this is an improvement or should MS bring back the funny guys?

    these are much better, and well, strike me as real! I liked the self satisfied shot of Bill in the second ad ;)

    Well, now they are actually promoting something - quite different from commercials about nothing. Must be nice to have that kind of money to spend on …nothing. But that’s why we call them micro$oft.

    O’Reilly wants to take on the oil companies for generating billions of dollars in profits on an 8.7% margin. Hell M$ has billions in profits at - like - a 25% margin. O’Reilly, wrong - again.

    Bill (Gates) put together an end-to-end solution (Cloud to PC to sync with phone or cloud to phone) so I can quit carrying an iPod and WM phone on my rides - and you’ll have it licked.
