Apple Advertising

It scares me to say this, but I think Apple's succeeded in making me sick of one of their commericals for the first time. Have they ever been as aggressive with marketing as they are doing now with the Yao Ming/Vern Troyer AlumiBook commercials? It seems that it pops up all the time on cable channels (haven't watched local TV much lately, so I don't know if its been so prominent there). I love the idea but it's just becoming overwhelming.

    Ha! First Apple can't advertise enough, now they advertise too much!



    Actually, the real problem here is that you watch too much TV.

    Probably so, but heck -- that's college. When not in study...heh. I still love you, Apple -- I'll just try not to watch as much. One thing, though -- does anybody else think putting the 17" lunker on mini-me's lap is extremely deceiving? I know steve wanted to show the relative scale of it, but common---LapZilla isn't as gargantuan as people are making it out to be.
