the add is typical seinfeld humor and it's directed at the type of people who enjoyed that show (myself among them), it's sort of like star trek movies, I always enjoy them if there is a continuity, even if non star trek fans hate the installment...that's what's going on here with this seinfeld add, to some of us it is hillariousWell said Jeff.
it's as funny as having "a contest" as funny as bragging about your "parking spot", seinfeld was a show "about nothing" and that was the genious
it's magnifying everyday conversation and to some of us it is brilliant, to others, not so much
it's obviously not intended for everyone
look at us, we're debating whether or not an add is funny...I LOVE the mac vs pc adds, I also LOVE the pc vs mac adds, I think they are BOTH well concieved and both of them have contributed to marketing models for future strategy from other brands
both companies are brilliant, both companies found their respective market, both companies do a fine job
here's the thing though, a pc guy will consider using a mac, mac guys do not switch (as much) but for the most part, once you learn on one system you're not going to another
