I just saw the first Vista commercial with Bill G and Senifeld. Bill is looking for shoes and seinfled suggests the conquitador. As the two walk out of the store Seinfled asks if Bill has used his amazing brain with other brains at Microsoft and he says of course then Seinfeld asks if they come out with something to make computers edible. Bill says yea I think. This will be an intersesting campaign.

That was terrible. I knew going with Seinfeld was a mistake.

I need better writers.
It's a trick! They release a terrible and pointless advertisement so that everyone blogs about how stupid it was, then they unleash the real awesomeness advertisement when no one is expecting it!!!spivonious said:That was terrible. I knew going with Seinfeld was a mistake.

A few weeks later, they were marketing classics.
I think these ads will appeal to non-geeks. This one was funny and self-effacing, and is a classic first step in a marketing campaign; getting people interested in what's to come.

If you stumbled and fell down, it doesn't mean yet, that you're going in the wrong direction.

My personal reaction was "Errrr.... Huh?.... Hmmmm..."
Seems like it's extremely difficult to find "mojo" in present days... Even for companies like MS or G.
