New A le ads mean irited?



Seth Steve on, writing for Slate, makes a good point about the new A le ads: John Hodgman (the actor portraying the PC) gets all the good lines. He's the fu y, likable one. The Mac (played by Justin Long) is kind of a oying and not the least bit fu y.

Sadly, I don't think A le counted on Hodgman's rise in popularity before they shot these commercials, but does that mean the ads don't work? Since I am clearly already a Mac user I can't really judge if they work or not. I know there are a few switchers out there that read TUAW, so tell me: do these commercials make you want to buy a Mac?
