	Biggerboat - Big Mac
		The Mac guy spends his time talking about all the stuff his computer can do that the PC can’t—most of which is misleading at best—and the PC guy ends up looking like he needs to find a phone and call that other purveyor of irritating television ads, Enzyte.
		Frankly, I’m not sure who these ads are supposed to be appealing to (except to the people who already use Macs, as Sean suggests), but I am sure that I don’t want to know the type of person they appeal to—smug, condescending people who believe making employees wear suits is a crime against humanity.
		I feel as betrayed by this Mac campaign as I did by that wave of uber-masculine Volkswagen ads, meant to appeal to guys who wanted to "get in touch with their fast" (something like that) with "funny" commercials about how whiny/stupid/bitchy women (specifically, girlfriends) are.
