Ahhh, I was wondering how long it would take for Mac to launch a windows 7 ad, 0 days ofcourse! It’s another in their series of Mac vs PC ads which no matter how many I see, ever fail to feel like the campaign should take a new direction. However, I’m sure Mac have bigger things to worry about with the launch of the Droid (including Droid’s direct poke at the iPhone ads) and the potential to lose market share on their biggest revenue earner to date…

Help us share the digital goodness!

      I am a PC since Windows 2.

      I will not upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.

      I have copies of Windows 95,98,XP and Vista, that would not upgrade to the previous Windows Version.

      The only way that I was able to upgrade was to buy a new computer with the new version.

      I have 2 desktop computers and a laptop, so the Windows7 Family Bundle at Office Depot that includes installation would probably be good.

      However, I will wait and see because I see some network problems with Windows7. My network works great, after taking me 2 days to get it up and running a year ago.

      I only see online reviews from people who have a skin in the game, for example, authors of the Dummies Books, Computer Magazines, and software and hardware companies.

      Sorry……NOT THIS TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!

      I saw this the first time in the apple website and thought it was the funniest ad.. So simple and cheeky.

      I’ve been using Windows 7 for several months (RC version) and it is actually good but I like this ad and it is a fair angle to use. Gotta love the 80s PC guy

      Unfortunately, for Apple’s sake, Windows 7 is a great operating system.
