Title: Mac vs. PC vs. IBM
Post by: William Grim on 2007-02-21T21:17:26-06:00 (Wednesday)
I think this commercial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOlrKH3SmtI) from IBM owns the Mac vs. PC (http://www.apple.com/getamac/) ads.  I knew what they were talking about the whole time, but I thought it was kinda deep and thought provoking on some level.

So the point of the commercial is saying that the user can manipulate Linux to whatever they want it to be? I'm confused.

They were saying that Linux is the next generation and has the potential to change the world.

Did you notice the guy with a guitar at the beginning of the video? He looks just like Justin, the ex-Master.

Oh no!  And now he's got pentagrams as his rank icons!  Soon he'll be speaking in tongues! :-P

... what's funny is that he won't post anything for a while... ;-)

So we can trash talk him and he won't say anything?  :-D
