Apple is having a snipe at Microsoft with two new Apple commercials, one of which comments on Microsoft’s$300 million advertising campaign.
The Bean Counter ad shows PC dividing up Microsoft’s budget between fixing Vista and the advertising campaign. The majority of the money goes to the campaign and when Mac comments that there isn’t enough money allocated to fixing Vista, PC moves all the money into the advertising allocation.
In the second ad the word Vista – the V Word – is buzzed out every time it is mentioned – because that Microsoft is officially going to stop referring its troubled operating system by name.
