I guess the reason I like the commercial well enough is that I don't really have any strong opinions for or against Microsoft. It's really all I've ever known. Haven't tried Vista yet.

It's no worse than the PC (bumbling fat guy) vs MAC (cute young guy who, apparently, gets laid due to his choice of computer) commercials.

I long for the days of 3.1.

I've got Vista on my machine because it was the only thing available and I'm not cool enough to bother getting rid of it. It hasn't really caused me any problems I'm aware of.

You have to wonder what the board meetings are like at MS when they have to say, "OK, we need a multmillion dollar ad campaign to explain to the consumers that our newest product doesn't suck as bad as they think it does". Not a good meeting.
