If you spend 300,000,000 Dollars in advertising that doesn't really work, you have to expect some (ironic) side blows by your competitors. Watch Bake sale - Apple's latest 'get a mac' ad - to learn how easy vista fixing could be financed. Yummy...

Get a Mac: Two new commercials.

written on:

Titled Bean Counter and V Word. Both of them are quite funny, but V Word has the best chances to be the funniest of all. At least for me.

All commercials can be found here. Enjoy.

Did you know: All Versions of Mac OS X (Cheeta == Gepard (in German) [10.0], Puma [10.1], Jaguar [10.2], Panther [10.3], Tiger [10.4], Leopard [10.5]) have the same codenames as lethal weapons (mostly tanks (panzer)) have/had. Snow Leopard [10.6] will be the first exemption.

19 Oct 2008

This is a tip on how to clean the scrollball of a mighty mouse. Without disassembling, without moistured tissues. Simply use a sheet of paper and rub the 'nipple' heavily across the paper. I've tested it and it works perfect.

This tip has it's origin at blogsurdum. That made my (sun)day (so far). Thanks a lot Michael (he's also the author of some very interesting little apps, that can be found here at myownapp.com.
