Stupid Bowl? Hot Jobs challenges Monster Board Career sites bust bank to square off on Super Bowl CBS MarketWatch - Last Update: 2:13 PM ET Jan 29, 1999 Maybe it should be called the Stupid Bowl, with the huge amounts of money that tiny Internet brands are throwing at the football's marquee event on Sunday. Apple returns After a 14-year hiatus, Apple (AAPL) returns to the Super Bowl, where its made its fame with its "1984" commercial in 1984. This year's inspiration moves beyond George Orwell to Stanley Kubrick's motion picture, "2001: A Space Odyssey" with a 60-second commercial by TBWA.Chiat/Day. The spot boasts that unlike the fictional computer villain, Hal, Apple computers are Y2K ready. "HAL is the perfect spokesperson to address the Y2K issue because he lives in the year 2001 and can speak from experience," Apple's forever-interim CEO Steve Jobs quipped in a statement. More than 250,000 copies of the commercial have been downloaded off the company's Web site, but the Super Bowl broadcast marks its TV debut. cbs.marketwatch.com o~~~ O
