The ad campaign by Microsoft using Jerry Seinfeld is very similar to their internal videos. They show the softer, lighter side of Microsoft; however, they have nothing to do with Vista! I found myself scratching my head at the end of the 1min 30sec commercial. In what world do commercials run longer than 30 sec? Just a thought. If these are to be the combat to the Get a Mac campaign they are more than a bit lacking - feel free to chime in.

That's funny, but I still think Vista is "quirky", not quite stable as XP-Pro yet.
I was TOTALLY confused after I saw that ad! I asked Dale 'what was that about?' he didn't know either. I felt kinda dirty after watching it.
I thought it was an ad for "shoe circus" until the very end... still don't get the point.
Cold it be a reference to Surface or the new operating system they have eluded to?
