I agree, but on those same lines the hardware commercials don't show even a glimpse of OS X running on it.
I agree in turn. The "whole widget" includes the stuff that's running on the hardware. I like the idea of it being one whole thing, a complete user experience, but you have to include the as part of the sale.
The magic of Apple is the result of both hardware and software. It doesn't make sense to split the two, but Apple should show some aspects of OS-X while advertising their hardware.

Like you said, Apple should do some effort to advertise OS X. But is one doesn't want to split the "user experience" then Apple should do a set of ads, each featuring a section of the "user experience", yet link them all up together. Expensive to do on TV I guess, but possible and equally probable... m.
You guys got a point, I was shopping with a friend one time and her main excuse was that macs are ugly. She said that they dont have the little shiny buttons and look pretty like windows XP. I really thought she was joking but she was serious. OSX needs to be advertised to the world if even for only like a week. \

That must have been painful for ZDNet to print.
