New Apple Advertisements Poke (More) Fun at Microsoft

By Ben Haber

Following Microsoft’s recent spending spree on advertisements, Apple released a new batch of ads that poke fun at Microsoft – and all the cash they spent on their campaign.

Apple put out a series of eight advertisements which focus on a variety of topics, including the computer of choice for college students, vista, and Microsoft’s spending habits.

This set of ads is just the latest in the back-and-forth between Apple and Microsoft. While Microsoft’s ads attracted a LOT of attention (due to their off-subject topics and the appearance of Jerry Seinfeld), Apple’s have been much more too the point, and illustrate the key issues that many consumers have with their PCs.

Check out the ad above (which I enjoyed most), or click here to see the other seven advertisements.
