Apologies if old, but I couldn't see it, and only just heard about it in today's PA:

oh

I appear to be the only person that calls him Seinfeld

hes jerry to me

second ad is out and i believe, even more bizarre!

It just reeks of desperation to me. Trying to be cool and Appley but just failing miserably.

Kinda like the recent apple anti vista ads.

Haha

Finally a penny arcade that made me laugh out loud.

Rev, what about this one?

PEW PEW

This has been my favourite for a while:

It just reeks of desperation to me. Trying to be cool and Appley but just failing miserably.

I don't know, I think it represents Vista very well:

no real aim, unsure of target audience, being about nothing, no real substance.

also - i liked the second add.. had some good bits.. and i think it did (in the end) promote a point about connecting people etc.

Ok, that WoW one was awesome as well.

This one is much better, a clear message and pretty damn funny. Seems like the first one was just to explain why Gates and Seinfeld would be hanging out... though that PA pretty much sums it up perfectly.

Nothing says 'future software' more than a television celebrity from the early 90s.

Yeh even the second was a bit meh.. to me.

incredibly lame imo. just makes me wanna pirate m$ os's & kill jews... but then, i felt like that before i saw the vids too.

if you're honest with yourself, you'll probably see that it was a combination of video games and watching those vids that gave you those feelings

all you need now to cause you to act on those feelings, is to watch 5 minutes of a big brother episode

yea 4 and a half minute advertisements... awesome work...

this kind of advertising just doesn't work without phil collins

or gorillas.

Another ad that has Bill briefly in it. I don't know if this is old or new, but this one was only posted yesterday.



From what I've read, the Jerry ads have been a failure and they won't be doing any more of those.
