Bill Gates, Jerry Seinfeld - Microsoft Ad

[FreddyFilmore]

These are by far the worst ads ever conceived and produced. Seinfeld has never been funny and will never be funny. I did find his show great because of the supporting cast. This comment has nothing to do with the mac/pc debacle. It's just plain horrible!

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

because bill gates always let me post stupid shit... or was that paul allen?

as in uncle leo? from 1039?

who ARRREE

these PEOPLE!?!

(kramer says, 'um, insert rhetorical questionmark here')

[aratidwell]

ROFLOL, that is truly the dummest commerical I have ever seen!

[Gannondalf]

you know jerry seinfeld for $10 million for these ads....

[PalmyJason]

Ah, this was completely pointless.

[osakakokujin]

I HATE all Microsoft Software but I LOVE what Bill Gates and his Wife do through their foundation.

[resdudeornardude]

Now see what happened here?  They made an AD relating to THEIR product only (though it didn't really relate to anything) and didn't mention or bash their competitor. Why can't apple do the same?

[cnoq8]

That's....not funny...

[atworkguy]

Very good. Seinfeld is the master.

Btw nerds, you can like both Microsoft and Mac ads. they do not need to be mutually exclusive.

[MirceaKitsune]

Senseless and boring... like all Microsoft commercials.

Bill nicely shows his personality through this vid however. Observe how everyone puts the shoes in his feet while he hardly even bends to look down at who he's talking to. Same attitude that we can sense in Windows...

[Snuskigaste]

MAC ads doesn't make half sense and even drags about false information.

[UsernameRogen1978]

LOL MAC IZ BETTR LOL MS SUCKZzs!1

Fuck off, idiot. Nobody cares.

[Neodark10]

umm wth?

[Intelpentium54321]

i never could figure this out. But I laugh everytime

[ashokpai75]

oh my god, what an epic fail!

this is as lousy as it can ever get!

[atworkguy]

Great ad! I for one am happy the mass population does not like it. that means it is a good ad and funny. Unlike let's say the Whassup guys .. now that was a bad ad.

[reebokj18]

AWesome

[annzmanz]

i love it!

[danhegelund]

? Didn't get the point ?

[inorb1]

what a faking nerds ... get a life and get laid phreaks!!!

[slikyle]

yeah, so Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, hasn't gotten laid, yet has 3 kids... smart:)

[betomas]

chingen todos a su pinche puta madre.

[ryanonwheels12]

hah i love bill gates!

[Krytopsy]

Bill Gates is a nerdz and he like what nerdz like.

[tye3333]

boring

[domtar76]

Why do they mention Gates' shoe size three times?

[tye3333]

4 times

[moorsalin3]

this commercial made no sense, like fashion commerical no sense

[linnjones]

But Jerry has a MAC! :D

[AAAttendee]

did anyone else notice all of the homosexuality of this ad?

[mookixox]

Wow what a waste of a funny jew...i'm not even an apple fan boy and this fucking advert sucked ass* pathetic.

[urossesum]

great job bill gates that lame ass commericial really fixed my computer problems now ya i might as well bang it with a hammer now.

[salamander2952004]

it isn't interesting!!

[timmy71]

I left my horse a long time ago.

[tarunrad]

lol! the last sentece make the OS Moist and Chewy like cakes

it looks like they r trying to be Apple

[Darkanias]

I feel that Sienfield sold his soul to the devil -_-

[metyuewb]

No. Seinfeld never had a soul to sell.

[lamewing]

10 million dollars for his soul...hmmmm tempting.

[angela1894]

In order to counter the stiff, uncool image the Mac ads have painted for PC, microsoft should have gone with a more hip, cool, young dude, maybe like Pharrell Williams, or Jay Z.

[linduxed]

How about not making a horrible commercial instead.

[alexw1981w]

nooooooooo they shouldnt have lol

[angela1894]

I hope Seinfeld didn't write those dumb, unfunny lines, if he did, then he's really lost it.

[tmsbrdrs2]

They actually sounded like the dialogue from Seinfeld (the show, not the person).

Of course, that could just be his delivery since everything sounds the same with him.

[WilliamDangerCollier]

i like bill's mugshot on his ID card

[lovelyspringweather]

that was awesome

[ThunderduckDX]

woops, sorry about my last comment, i was fooling around with the audio preview function... it sounds really weird.

[malgacho]

yeah not even funny! FAIL

[yijunlin]

so awkward.

[Udany147]

OMG THIS ADVERT IS AWESOME!!1

[Jecht301010]

hmmm dont know, i liked it

[SpicyHam]

about time you leave your horse mr.gates

[ThunderduckDX]

I left my horse a long time ago.

[MrSceneKid]

funny commercialll

[manuntd2009]

worst commercial ever, thats why the damn stock is at 19 bucks

[93Hondax2]

Mircosoft doesnt need lame commericals to sell computers.

[MrSceneKid]

nigger microsoft doesn't sell computers they sell the software you cock face

you nigger. Goddam niggerfaced niggerhead you nigger-like niggtoefucked nigger.

[93Hondax2]

exuse me but what the hell is your problem douchebag!!!!!!!!

[h8rman]

calm down you stupid fuck head and learn the definition of "computer" b4 u go on ur ignorant rant. microsoft does sell "computers" dumbshit. xboxs, zunes, msn tv....those are computers dumb ass. so while ur calling someone a nigger for no reason, i think u need to look in the mirror when u say it cock brain

[postalmailbox]

this is a total waste , the commercial doesn't convey anything. useless use of star power, total waste of Advertising budget

[PhrostCope]

I use a PC but Gates is so god awful at TV.

[lugia3]

you need to watch this multiple times to get it lol

[hisbeatnik]

"You a Shoe Circus Club Member?"

[Bill holds up Ancient Adolescent Membership Card with photo]

"PLATINUM"

...priceless

[HolySexGod]

zzzzzzzzzzzz

[oaguirre]

omfg this is terrible... in a marketing/humour/common sense ... way... u know what i mean >.>

[clashcityrocker13]

the photo on his "platinum card" is his DUI photo haha

[simplewelt]

you need to watch the seinfeld sitcom to understand the type of humor, it's typical dialog which seinfeld might have had with George, Kramer or Elaine.

[Shawnstra]

huh?

[xjih78]

seriously! i'm a vegetarian. i hate leather. :)

[abadplanner]

Crapiest ad I have ever seen. .. and they paid millions for this? Man, I'm buying apple stock today.

[hisbeatnik]

abadplanner - well, you DO KNOW that Gates owns 40% Stock in Apple, right? So you're still giving him $ HaHa... (I feel your pain tho - I hate Microsoft). Give me Open Source, or give me death!

[amerycanidiot]

who even said that i hate microsoft!!!

[hawaiianrobot]

so how was the japanese comic books store today mr. linux. what distro do you use.

[liscinskydr1]

If yes, adjust your shorts..... OOoohhhh I knew it! HAHA

[liscinskydr1]

Is that the conquistador? .... Yeah, they run tight... hahahah

[davear]

wow the mac and p.c. commercials are way funnier

[xXxHoboWithastick]

yea...but they lie alot

[scooterskittles]

The cake is a lie!!

[undecidedend02]

It is really funny!!! You guys don't see their point!!!

[undecidedend02]

Watched if you like to laugh!!!

[SiKeStHaRdEsT1]

yey i can eat my computer anyone want some

[yemrollZ]

yum xD

[MasterMoron]

I don't get it? How is making computers moist and chewy funny? Did Seinfeld actually write this?

[coolshig]

lolwat?

[neoark13]

excuse my words, but I think this ad is tasteless, pointless....

"guess what bill? your ten!" so sad...so not funny...

[KingSizedSarah]

wow. this is just plain awkward.

[TheSkiingGuru]

what the hell did gates do w/his ass there?

[Whizkid103]

Why were you looking at it?

XP

[iamthepeppernator]

Haha, XP. I don't know why I find that's funny, but it is (XP meaning windows platform, btw).

[Whizkid103]

I died a little inside

[lgkga]

lmao

[shedotrar]

though I prefer mac I think bill gates is a pretty cool guy. eh talks bullshit and doesnt afraid of anything

[AxaliaN]

I actually loved it ^^

[supimAndriy]

this was their reply to the mac ad campaign? I mean fucking hell........

[bluzer2222]

d e l e t e.

get a Linux based Operating System.

[finch150]

"Linux based"?

Good job camp, I think you mean UNIX

[enrock2332]

No, he meant Linux. You can tell the difference between a kernel and an operating system, right?

[finch150]

"Unix (officially trademarked as UNIX, sometimes also written as Unix with small caps) is a computer operating system" - Wikipedia

No, he mean UNIX. You can tell the difference between a kernel and an operating system, right?

[enrock2332]

Yes, wise boy. Exactly my point. You can build a linux based operating system, because it is just the kernel. You _base_ your operating system on a linux kernel, and surround it with, let's say, GNU utilities. So you can perfectly say 'linux based'. Do you see how stu.. ah.. never mind. Go Einstein, go!

[finch150]

Yeah, the 'Pretending to know about Linux by inserting buzz words' strategy is a popular one but, a very flawed one.

"You _base_ your operating system on a linux kernel"

I know its hard to actually think before you type but those seconds may, in fact, stop you looking moronic. Again, lets check an independent source:

"In computer science, the kernel is a component of most computer operating systems" - Wikipedia

How do you base the creation of a operating system around a single component?

[hijoeturre]

You obviously have no clue what a kernel is if you're looking at wikipedia to clear it up for you.

Perhaps you could take your own advice and stop a few seconds as well to think what you're typing?

[finch150]

Yeah, using an independent source to support an rebuttal is completely ridiculous.

I find it amusing how you suggested "You obviously have no clue what a kernel is", yet didn't add any constructive criticism to what I said.

The hypocrisy of your claim of my hypocrisy is well, besides a blatant show of your inability to comprehend basic argumentative practices, deeply ironic..

[hijoeturre]

You couldn't find any bigger words to make your answer more complex, could you?

[finch150]

I'm sorry if my 'big' words are too 'complex' for you.

Lets average my word length:

62 Words

315 Letters

315 divided by 62 equals to 5.0806451612903225806451612903­226 (5)

So my average word had five letters....

Hard to read huh?

(PROTIP: It took me 25 seconds with Word and the Calculator to prove that you are a idiot)

Oh, and good reply. Couldn't think of a logical counter-argument to present? Yeah, just imply that my reply had too many big words for oh-so-simple brain to comprehend.

[hijoeturre]

So you need the calculator to make that math?

There's no need for a logical argument. You're already doing the job yourself of proving you've no clue of what you're talking about, hehe.

[doorsx111x]

Boring and dumb

[Afrella]

ummm fail much?

[kmouse39]

i liked it

[rphsquires]

How very bizarre, and not in a good way.

Just bizarre.

[2luper]

that's pretty sad and unfunny....

using a has-been comedian to promote ...has-been...microsoft...

[djoshthorne27]

apple did the same thing lol

[frrVegeta]

They run tight.

Lol

[muckwarrior]

What a pile of fuckin shit!

[VSDRUMS]

hahahaha So random...love it

[sergiotmujica]

hmmmm.... I used to like Seinfeld's comedy... not anymore I guess!

[rjohara133]

this commercial sucks

[aviren]

Dont believe Gates the cake is a Lie!!!!

but the commercial is entertaining atleast

[ricesniper]

omfg i keep hearing this commercial on my computer and even when i shut down every program it still remains... WTF

[YUPnNOPE]

u probably have windows...

[ricesniper]

lol that was funny but really im truly serious.

[garethbeverland]

I like it

[markatzzz]

Pathetic

[aarkerio]

Windows is so history, Vista is so slow, weak and bad designed. The real war is between OSX and Linux, Microsoft is a old king dying.

[brotaque]

so, it used to be a king?

[Pikayumyums]

Thats why you upgrade your freakin computer to make it faster. Don't say "You don't have to upgrade Mac to make it faster!" Because you can't upgrade it easily, and with the amount of money you spend on a mac you might as well buy a PC and head on to Newegg for good parts.

[Rogabeetah2007]

Sorry, I stopped reading at slow.

[Whizkid103]

Please. Vista is NOT slow nor is it bad designed.

[wwildberger]

This Ad Just makes me Angry ... WTF is the Point of this Ad .. A Dried Up Comedian and Software Thieving Hack Talking about Shoes and Eatable Computers.... WTF

[akbarbaby]

After his tantrum on Larry King I lost much of the respect for fuckwit Seinfeld.

[Kirame]

I'm so confused that i don't know what to say...except...those two should just get married now i mean damn is it just me or is there some odd homoerotic stuff hidden in this add?

[Supremedeity]

lol i just think its you buddy are a closet homo our mabye u just dont know it yet yourself lol because only those type of people would think it relevant to say it

[ShakeMastaJake]

the cake is a lie.....

[REZBLUE22]

buahahaha.... =/

[sageofpsychology]

I think I'll be switching to Mac next computer.

No honestly, that ad connects to viewers like Vista does to windows users. Clunky, bloated and pointless.

[andyg666]

I love this.

[huricaneroad]

i dont get does anyone else know what it means and tell me what it means and the decoder ring that you use

[sritchie70]

ummmm... wow! This would never pass at my company. And why is Windows delicious? Aren't apples delicious! Bad move MS.

[sickdiggitydog]

That was fucking hilarious!!!

[Bortacus]

I didn't like it the first time I saw it, but the second time it got better. My favorite part is when Seinfeld and Gates just stare and nod at each other.

[thelifeaquatica]

And please don't reply that he has to be to afford Macs. That wont work, sorry.

[thelifeaquatica]

Remember Seinfeld actually used a Mac. He had Macs on his show and I bet he uses one at home. He prolly has an iPhone too. This just shows that he's a whore for money.

[DaveOtta]

Whatttttt.... the fuck...

[scienceandpoetry]

to quote krusty the clown: what the hell was that? i could pull a better ad out of my aahhhh-hey, wow! wasn't that great, kids?!

[JujBres]

...I really don't get it...

Interesting choice for a marketing campaign, Microsoft!

[zimbloggy]

i like this commercial, but it doesn't really have anything to do with microsoft.

[sixtafoua]

this is so dumb it's like the apple ads but they don't make sense and they're really long and expensive for the company

[Deadonstick]

Microsoft made this commertial to counter the apple "Hello i'm a Mac and i'm a PC commertial".

Well this sucks xD.

Microsoft cant make anything exept for a decent Joystick.

[delrusso]

I want those 90 seconds of my life back. :P That was horrible!

[judsmcclure]

its ad not add, ass

[joey368]

meh, any commercial is better and makes more sense than the shitty Get A Li--I mean Mac commercials.

[desmondliao]

this is a windows user for sure.

[joey368]

he also has a very good taste in marketing campaigns

[jgreghenry]

so Microsoft wants to connect with the future by attaching itself to an entertainment icon from the 1990's...who I might ad (on his TV show) used a MAC! Also, may I say half the audience they are hoping for never watched Seinfeld 'cause they were too young, or do they think the future lies with the over 40 crowd? Huh???

[thelifeaquatica]

Thank you!! Someone who remembers that he used a fucking Mac on his show.

[mdifilms]

Some other guy mentioned it about 20 comments earlier, don't thank this guy.

[sevenguiry]

apple IS darth vader, awesome!!

[sevenguiry]

what are churros? this is just random and funny. I LIKE IT!!

[curtvdl]

what was that? Terrible add.

[xlizmyersx]

I'd like to meet the advertising genius who convinced two of the brightest people in the universe that this was a good idea.

The music at the end kind of sums it up, doesn't it? It's just a joke, kids? But carrying those churros around at the end....maybe this is an ad for Viagra?

[learntoswim187]

To be honest, this isn't nearly as bad as people have made it sound. I was amused.

Microsoft is still evil, but I was amused.

[JediTomM]

wtf

[adhdnorge]

???????????????

[zepgirl27]

Was I supposed to get that?

[nightstep]

yep well, still waiting...

[Tim8336]

wat is this ad about

[TsHaCo]

Apple is now becoming the dark side!

[PureSolace]

I guess they're gonna make an edible OS that tastes like cake.

[ngaines99]

This ad has absolutely not legitimacy considering that Jerry Seinfeld has always been a bona fide Mac user and fan. Remember the series of Macs in the corner of the Jerry's apartment on the show.

Although I'm a little disappointed that Jerry went to the darkside, $10 mil will do that, it probably speaks to the fact that this ad has virtually nothing to do with any MS product.

[ex0duzz]

yeah, that's the reason he turned down $5 million an episode for another season of seinfeld.. something he had pretty much full creative control over.

[ecoots]

btw, "ad" is spelled "Ad"

[g3ftw]

the cake is a lie

[lanfisher]

It has to be a prelude to something. Wait it out...

[blackrubberbag]

Um. Geez. What did I just watch?

Kind of reminds me of the first Infinity commercial where they thought it would be a good idea to show a large bale of hay sitting in a field instead of a car.

If they're ditching Vista...isn't that something people would like to know?

[abstractface]

Bill Gates is smart.. he just paid the ad agency to have jerry sinfield bow before him and fix his shoes.. he's asserting how great he is...BILL IS THE GREATEST!

And jerry is just another pawn of Microsoft GWAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

[Vaakev]

This is idiotic.  Why would anyone spend money on this? Why would anyone give this a 5?

[CharlieMurphysCouch]

Wow, that's just sad. Seinfeld used to be so funny.

[kazuchiyo]

I would fire my ad agency, if this is the best they could come up with. It's ridiculous, inane, and ten years past any kind of relevancy.

[UEGGaara]

wtf was with that ass shake :P

[dtunstall03]

The point is...sometings coming!

[xrollin9ston3x67]

This is the worst commercial I've ever seen

[alexolsennavarro]

Are you kidding?!? I've seen WAAAY worse. Haven't you seen those Westwood insurance commercials?

[GoodForNothing215]

this is funny
