afusion Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I chuckled a bit when he held his id card "platinum" Overall I enjoyed the commercial.

markwolfe Veteran Posted September 5, 2008 Veteran Share Posted September 5, 2008 hahaha pretty good. That owns the mac vs pc ads:blink: Ummm... On what planet? It was seriously unfunny and didn't really talk about the product at all, except maybe if you count eating a computer like a cake. :unsure:The best part was the photo on Bill's ID. Other than that I didn't like it at all.A big "AMEN" to that! :laugh:I just hope that this wasn't all of Jerry's $10M salary from Microsoft.

Rudy Posted September 5, 2008 Author Share Posted September 5, 2008 hahaha pretty good. That owns the mac vs pc ads you're kidding right? the only thing that was remotely funny was his store card with his mugshot :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/665498-seinfeld-windows-commercial/page/2/#findComment-589743286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
micro Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I thought it was ok, but as said many times it really didnt relate to vista at all.. But then again, microsoft is not going to pull an apple and sit and make fun of a product. They are better than that.

brayan27 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 (edited) I feel bad for them. out of all the ideas, out of all the creativity they could have put on this campaign, they had a blank canvas where they could change the image of windows...they went with this?

offroadaaron Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 wow worst advertising i've ever seen. Didn't find it funny at all! Mac vs PC are actually watchable compared these. I thought it was ok, but as said many times it really didnt relate to vista at all..But then again, microsoft is not going to pull an apple and sit and make fun of a product. They are better than that. lol that was better in what way? I'd Rather have someone make fun of a product worth making fun of.

Doli Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 It wasn't that good but I'm guessing that they are building up to something later on. Really didn't give much details of why Vista is better but it didn't bash the other OS like the silly Mac vs. PC commercials which gives little details why OSX is better but takes up most of the time bashing Vista.

Hell-In-A-Handbasket Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Microsoft needs to fire the commercials creative director, heck just fire everybody that thought that up, it was bad, only good/funny part was the platinum card holder bit Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/665498-seinfeld-windows-commercial/page/2/#findComment-589743544 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Veteran Posted September 5, 2008 Veteran Share Posted September 5, 2008 I thought it was ok. It didn't make me change the channel like Apple's ads and I'm sure it's part of a series.

Lexcyn Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Well, it was a funny add ... except WTH was it about? Honestly, there was really no point to the add, other than Bill Gates being in it, you knew it was about Microsoft. Seriously, baaaaaad.

Ayepecks Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I just don't understand the commercial. What's it supposed to be promoting? What about it is supposed to be funny? Is it even supposed to be funny? (If it has Seinfeld in it you'd think so.) It just doesn't have a point. What a complete waste of money.

WhoTheF Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Bill is a Platinum Clown Member - yeay! So, how exactly is that related to Windows? - That the shoe circus place offers many versions/levels of membership cards just like how windows offers different versions of windows? They've totally proved fools outta themselves weather i relate it to my theory or not.

Jebadiah Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 This seems to be a build up to some more ads. Didn't you see Bill adjust his underwear?
