Friday Funny – Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld

Its no secret that Microsoft (Bill Gates in particular) has not been a big fan of Apple’s “I’m a Mac” ad campaign. Their solution to the problem was to hire Jerry Seinfeld for $10 million dollars and get him to appear in a ad or two with Bill Gates. The first of these ads has been released. The ad may be a little, well, subtle. Maybe the only thing the marketing company they hired could think of was “Maybe if we get them thinking about our ads, they might stop thinking about our products…” I suppose we’ll have to wait and see if the advertising strategy works…

    Apparently there has been a leaked internal email from Microsoft stating that this was just an icebreaker ad to reintroduce the company to the public. The more serious and informational ads are coming later…

    …but still…? I don’t know…
