I'm usually pretty mixed about the "I'm a Mac" ads, but I confess this one is cute.

That is hilarious. I've been a PC guy for mumblety-mumble years. I've tried a number of times to use a Mac and recognize that they are superior in many ways, not the least of which is the ability to poke fun at the other guy without getting nasty. But then that may just be the ad guys and the CEOs.

Mac owners have a nasty reputation for acting all smug and superior over PC owners.

But I guess we're allowed to think that way because our OS is so much better than Windows. ;)

I just think of it as "little-market share" disease. :)

I much preferred OS/2 but IBM wimped out on that one.

"I much preferred OS/2 but IBM wimped out on that one."

Word that -- I was very disappointed when OS/2 was dumped as a desktop opsys... with IBM announcing 12/31/06 as the end-of-life support date for OS/2, I don't know if it will continue to be used for dedicated systems and as a PAL controller. A shame, really.
