Microsoft's $300 million ad campaign tumbles with new PC ads
AppleInsider —
By Prince McLean Published: 09:00 PM EST Microsoft's bizarre campaign to turn $300,000,000 into a marketing message took an even stranger turn Thursday with the airing of the company's latest television commercial: "I'm a PC." What began as an attempt to associate Microsoft with a smart and comic social relevance turned mean and condescending before being placed on hold indefinitely and replaced by a more defensive series of ads (below) that actually draw attention to Apple by referencing its Get a Mac campaign. The Mojave Experiment The first element of Microsoft's effort was the Mojave Experiment , which portrayed ...

MacDailyNews —
Microsoft airs its ‘I’m a PC’ ads (with video) Friday, September 19, 2008 - 01:12 AM EDT Microsoft began the next phase of their $300 million Windows Vista resuscitation campaign with three new TV ads on Thursday night. Microsoft's first ad begins with a poor imitation of John Hodgman, who plays the "PC" in Apple's "Get a Mac" ads. This is actually quite appropriate for a company whose main product, Windows, and biggest current failure, Zune, are themselves poor imitations of Apple creations. Microsoft's fake Hodgman claims, "Hello, I'm a PC, and I've been made into a stereotype." Somehow, Microsoft seems to have failed to notice that they are ...
