1 star for ripping off "I Met the Walrus"

Has an original idea ever come out of this company?

I have to make one more comment.

I have worked a long time in the technical field. I worked for both a non-technical company, and a technical company, both were public (first being NYSE, then NASDAQ).

In both cases, the CEO, nor the CMO had any say in the underlining technical infrastructure. In both cases, Windows was used for the user's front end, but the decision was more because most of the users were more comfortable with Windows. The server applications were always either Unix or Linux.

I am not going to be crude, like a few posters here, but need to get this off my chest.

I hate this ad campaign with a passion. First, the animation is annoying. But what really irks me is the 'interview' that sounds like it was recorded on an old time tape recorded over a telephone.

Advertising can, and often, be beneficial, But this one, I highly doubt, is.

Finally, I now hate the term 'economic tsunami' (not that it was a liked term previously, just now I loath it).

I hate these commercials. The fact that they are talking to these CEOs and not a single one of them mentions Microsoft, yet they use their answers and twist it to make it seem like they are praising Microsoft!

And at least the MAC Commercials were original at the time, these are just a rip off of "I Met The Walrus"

[Medsas]

worst piece of shit of an ad ever, so dull so boring, barely audible, fire the person who came up with this crap

[CheetoPudding]

GAHHHH this ad drives me crazy!!! I HATE IT

How innovative - just string together a bunch of business buzzwords (nugget, data mining) and you have an ad??? WTF

God what a stinking pile of crap

[vikkambli]

Yes- Jerry and Josh's design studio were the ones who developed the concept for this.

[joergiversen]

Just let an motion design agency make good work and buy the whole shit - then wait for the applause. That doesn't make Microsoft any better. Nice try.

[mrencinas]

Was this made by Jerry Levitan? The guy who made I Met The Walrus. Search "I Met The Walrus" on youtube to see what I'm taking about.

[singedrac]

Nope, they just ripped off his style.

[lethalhippo]

Looks like an exact duplicate of his style.

[spungii117]

At least its more creative then the gay get a mac ads

[TheOboeNerd]

Not when it's a rip-off.

[spungii117]

So the mac ads telling you to buy their computers that cost twice as much as a PC is not a ripoff?

Hypocrite wow

At least they an make a commercial without insulting their comptetion.
