I've never seen Microsoft tell apple this badly. I guess this is the Mac vs PC ads firing back at them.

I'm surprised though, they didn't mention price I thought they would have said something like "And you won't have to spend that much on a good PC, so you can go out and do more important things with your money. Like having a life."

I think they're trying to steer away from the "poorfag's PC" image. Either way, the told is delicious.

They didn't want to have to come up with a professional-looking written version of this:

This was pretty tame. Microsoft will never beat Apple when it comes to bashing the competition; it's what Apple does best.

MS should learn from them and use Apple's tactics of making exaggerated criticism of things that were true about their rivals ten years ago.

Yeah, it is as if the PC vs Mac adverts never existed...

Also this reminds me of the butthurt people had over Microsoft's laptop/pc/etc hunters ads in response to Apple's.

I'm a longtime windows user and while I prefer windows to mac; they aren't that bad. PC's aren't always that ready, willing and able. I find my macbook pro is always ready when I want to do something, whereas my Windows based PC has things popping up, or windows updates apparently require my attention, or worst yet is constant buggery of every little thing needing authorisation. As I said, I like Windows better, and certainly like my macbook, but I'm not one of those retards who runs around screaming like a heretic saying macs shit on windows blah blah.
