Default Did you catch this with the new iMac ad

"Mr. PC" looks like Bill Gates, but hey, the ad agency is just using the guy from the Comedy Channel's "John Daily Show"

I seem to be the only one seeing "Gate$" in the ad--but you try it:

I saw the ad where the PC is talking about haiving a virus and the Mac is healthy. Is that the ad you mean?

I included the ad if you will scroll up and click to the site

The ad is like those for "Viagra" type drugs in that what the ad does is sneaky...The ad agency can argue, "We just used that guy on the 'John Daily Show'...We had no idea he looks and acts like the public Bill Gates..."
