It is one of the worst commercials ever! It is way too long, has no real point to argue (or it argues it very badly, not sure) and it is way too long! If it was funny or hilarious it would have been different - but it is marginally amusing at best. One more thing: Mac ads are also atmospheric, humorous and narrative driven - but they ALL provide also meaningful info on the products (they mention products, features, accomplishments, etc.) What can you say about a company that spends millions on a commercial, but makes it a point not to mention ANYTHING related to their products? still, I would not like to 'ruin your party'. and it might be better than previous MS commercials, though I doubt it. This is a really really over-hyped bad commercial. David You guys serious??

For Microsot, it will take more time and the campaign is still in early stages. I'm happy to see that you don't hate it. Who knows, maybe you'll even love what's next...
