Apple has admitted their Japan strategy is fracked. I wonder how these ads will do... Heh. I like how the "Virus" one the PC actually crashes... ...Yes, funny ..I suppose in Japan if you wear a hooded sweatshirt, jeans and sneakers, it means you're cool, just like in the USA and Australia .
As an Asian person (on the outside, WhiteTrash on the inside [no offense intended]), I find that the Mac dude in an Asian context seems humble enough, yet knowledgeable. Don't know about USA because haven't been there for a while but the Mac/PC ads with Justin Long shown here in Australia are alright, he's not too much of a wanker, so to speak. Though if they made an "Australian" version...
"G'day I'm a PC....."
"....And I'm a Mac."
"Bloody hell all you f***king Mac wankers are all up your own arse, aren't ya... poofters...!"
I liked the commericials I even sought out the parodies on youtube to watch ^_^
I use and like both mac and pc though (and linux and fbsd).
They are kind of mudslinging but it's not that bad and I don't think anybody is going to buy a mac over a pc based on what two random guys are saying in a video (I hope not...). It's just entertainment to me anyways. I'm a software developer and asian and female so those are my points of view on it. And I randomly found this site as a link from versiontracker (i think) and probably won't be on this forum again lol...but for some reason i feel the need to post comments on sites I find instead of doing my work o.O

*tries to get back to work*
i must agree..
mr. mac is quite annoying and mr. pc is friendly and happy.
maybe they'll switch mr. pc into mr. mac because he switched to mac??
i don't know but it kind of makes sense....
Nice plot and huge pay off. If the Apple commercial reps preped that from the beginning
that would be amazing.
