I saw an ad about Apple, and they still resort to childish comparisons, do they completely lack all class?

This is exactly the kind of response I expected we'd eventually hear from someone back when everyone was griping about the first Think Different ad. "Where are the product shots?," they asked. "Why doesn't Apple tout its faster, more efficient processor?," they lamented.

And now Apple's responded to those questions in their last two commercials, and still the gripes pour forth from the peanut gallery.

At what level, Bill, does a head-to-head comparison of one processor with another not become childish? Or are you referring only to the use of a snail and a singed chip maker as being childish?

I'll take either of those over a talking Chihuahua any day.

Apple, lack class? If Apple has a product that blows away the competition (and prices are dropping all the time, Bill!), I don't care if Jobs dumps ketchup on his filet mignon and wipes his mouth with his tie! Wait...Steve doesn't wear a tie. OK, his sleeve.

Glad you've stuck around for the ride back up to 27, Bill. Good luck to you.
