Mac vs PC: Retro View
Monday/August/31 2009 Filed in: Marketing / Business
Did the I'm a Mac...I'm a PC ad campaign really start way back in 1996?
Scottinger's Blog thought so when it uncovered this MacAddict magazine feature from the mid 90's.
It's like Deja Vu all over again isn't it? Almost a template for today's Mac commercials. Especially humorous, though, is the call-out about the Mac Addict's hair - The casual "Seinfeld-cut" because "of course Jerry would never use a PC." Oops!
Even the Idea of Using Call-Outs Got Recycled
Nothing new under the sun we suppose...
Justin Long gets the once-over...
...and so does John Hodgman
