  • lol

  • @embolicat it's not "disco fever" but "play that funky music" - wild cherry. Or am I wrong ?

  • There is a great story behind this ad:

    This was aired exactly a week after Pentium II started their campaign with the men in those Pentium suits assembling computers with the new processor while singing "Disco Fever" and proclaiming it was much better

    So, one week later, at the same time, Apple aired this commercial with that incredibly musical answer "Disco Inferno" (Burn, baby, burn)

    It was the end of the Pentium campaign. In fact, that other ad is nowhere to be found!

    Well done, Apple!

  • @embolicat Yet it's funny how a Pentium II is still useable yet a Power"PC" mac is now a brick since apple dropped all support for them.

  • Comment removed

  • Intel is our ally. Intel has always been our ally. Steve Jobs is doubleplus good.

  • Wow, this is a peice of mac history now

  • lol and now they use intel in there systems. Its funny how somethings change.

  • And yet OSX makes better use of an Intel chip than Windows.

  • uhh.. what?

  • true

  • Only the CPU. Macs still use the system resources more efficiently than Windows.

  • I found the multi-colored Apple! Do they still have it today?

  • "I found the multi-colored Apple! Do they still have it today? "

    iMac was the mulit colored in 1998 to 2004. From then all Mac have changed to Aluminum and some white. Now Colors are available iPod Nano

  • heat

  • Classic mac commercial, annoying music, stupid jokes and no proof to back up their bull shit.

  • Everyone knows PPC toasted the shit out of Intel back in the 90's. If you can't admit that then your in denial.

  • Proof? Oh that's right, you're a mac fanboy so you don't have any.

  • ROFL, its general fucking knowledge.

    Watch some old Apple keynotes where they had benchmarks, they even did tests live to prove it wasn't fixed.

    I'm a Mac fanboy? Your the biggest fucking Intel fanboy I've ever met. Don't worry, when they die I'll be laughing at you and dancing on their fucking grave.

  • Proof? Oh that's right, you're a mac fanboy so you don't have any.

    Youtube for..

    "powermac G5 introduction"

  • Apple went to Intel to get the NOW faster processors & so they could fit a fast/cooler running chip into the thin notebook line they have been famous for. IBM Power PC just ran out of gas. But back in the day it smoked the Pentium! Thus this ad.

  • why did apple switch to intel?

  • because they were fucking idiots.

  • lmfao!!!! I'd never use another PC again if I wasn't a C# programmer!

  • haha, then apple's started to get theri chips from intel, so they got burnt!

  • Thay never got burnt The G5 was their last chip and is was still better than intel's chips. The reason why they switch is because IBS promised apple alot of things but they wern't delivering on their promises so Apple decided to make the switch . Also the intel core chip runs much cooler then the power pc chips

  • then comes p3, OWNED

  • PPC raped the pentium 3 and 4 as well.

  • not to mention it didn't conserve as much power or produce as much hat
