Everybody that I have spoken to admit’s that they secretly want a mac… they talk about apple as though it where an affair, as though it would be cheating on their pc to get one. They simply lust after Apple’s Products. (ok admitedly a little extreme but still you get the point.) Mac’s are here and everybodys talking about them. Why you may ask? because they are sexy, they are top of the line, and the advertising behind them is undeniably better than Microsoft’s. I am not only talking about the two guys pretending to perpetuate to be computers or the many people saying they want a mac on Microsoft’s ads. but also the advertising on their websites. Take a look at the screenshots below.

First let’s say the obvious do you want a computer to build a resume? Or do you want a sexy cat with snow on it :)
Second Microsoft is not featuing it’s products on it’s homepage. Other than the tabs across the top I see no mention of windows, no pricing, I see no features. I see no mention of how fast windows is or how it supports a ton of hardware compared to the Mac. All I see is the news section where it even references Apple showing off it’s new version of office for OSX.

There was a toyota commercial that summed it up for me… “Everybody keeps saying how they were like the Camry so I bought a Camry” Makes sence to me… I have an IPhone for that very reason.

Thanks for reading
