yes hehe it's been a while since I've seen those stupid mac ads. Never saw a windows one though. Maybe it's because they never did a canadian version of the ad.

LOL! I don't know, but Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfield are on some of those dumb windows ads. Now I'm mostly seeing ones where it has that guy that is the pc on the mac commercials or someone who looks like him. He says, "I'm a pc and I've been stereo typed." Then it shows a whole bunch of other people in different profressions one by one saying, "I'm a pc!" So... I guess their trying to say that Windows users can be anyone, not just a fat geek in a suit wearing glasses!  |

LOL! Not me Holley... I'm learning more as I go along, but I'm FAR from being a nerd!  hehe Harley (my hubby) is not one either, but I think he's striving to be!  He used to know squat about computers, but he has learned more lately due to the necessity of trying to get a computer that works for him. He tried for months to buy one, but kept having problems so... with the help from a computer builder he met on a forum, he has now built his own!  Me... I learn more every day just by reading and listening, but I would not want to go inside my own computer and change anything out. I'm not that technical! |

I don't know, I think I have the power to traumatised them. Everytime I see a chihuahua he put his head between his legs as if he was trying to hide because he knows he is ugly LOL

Awww, now I wouldn't say they're ugly!  hehe... Harley's sister had a couple of those dogs and they always barked at people and acted like they wanted to bite them. How annoying!
