Should it?

 

[ssalim]

He's doing it for money, I don't blame him. I would do the same.

 

[captaincharisma]

hey if apple was paying me loads of cash for being a bad guy on one of there ads i probably would go with apple too

 

[08nwsula]

so apple users are actually fat old rambling men in suits

 

[JeanLuc]

[citation][nom]Jane McEntegart[/nom]Does this change the way you feel towards Apple's portrayal of PC?[/citation]

No.

BTW the PC character isn't 'nerdy, awkward and very uncool' he's honest and true to himself and doesn't pretend to be something he's not unlike the obnoxious twat next to him.

 

[sslazio77]

This is pointless news, apple obviously gave an ipod to the author of this article just to write this pointless news. And they want to publish this as news just to get all the stupid people who watch the commercials to realize that the PC character isn't actually a PC person in real life...

 

[captaincharisma]

No.

BTW the PC character isn't 'nerdy, awkward and very uncool' he's honest and true to himself and doesn't pretend to be something he's not unlike the obnoxious twat next to him.

so true. him and those people who say they are going to mac in those commercials too come off as complete assholes too

 

[flurrball]

So the guy in Apple's commercial is a Mac fan?

/sarcasm
I'm shocked...
/end sarcasm

Was this article even necessary?

 

[Socnom]

And this is supposed to be surprising? Who knows, maybe he gets a bonus on his contract for saying hes Mac only and using only Macs for the duration of his contract.

 

[trevorvdw]

So their ads should be "I'm a Mac and I'm a Mac"

It was completel necessarey... as far as ads go anyway

 

[warezme]

that just proves the "actors" used in this farce are just as fake as their message attempts to be.

 

[zachary k]

no s**t sherlock. you think a pc would go on there and do that for apple? john is probably a bigger douce than the mac guy.

 

[soo-nah-mee]

[citation][nom]trevorvdw[/nom]So their ads should be "I'm a Mac and I'm a Mac"[/citation]Yeah, and after they recite those words respectively, the two men begin making out passionately. After about 20 seconds of tongue kissing, they simultaneously turn their heads towards the camera and declare in slow, sensual unison: "The worst of both worlds. We're a Mac." [fade to black]

 

[duckmanx88]

everytime he says the world apple or mac he gets 5 cents.

Oh man...if you are going to be nerdy and use fake code as your comment at least do it the right way! It should look like this:

/sarcasm

 

[cadder]

They're both just hired actors. It is more surprising that either one of them knows anything about computers. Of course "owning" one and "using" one are still 2 different things. Maybe they should have just given him a couple of iphones, he could probably relate to those better.

I agree wholeheartedly, Justin Long just oozes douchebagery.

 

[steiner666]

OMG, ppl's opinions can be BOUGHT?! Even actors who are in advertisements>?!

Well that just shatters everything that i believed to be true.

 

[lowguppy]

You mean someone in a TV commercial was ACTING?!?! OMG!

 

[falconqc]

I did not think it was possible to like the apple ads even less.
