I really like the whole “get a mac” campaign! the only problem is that the protagonist of the campaign is always the Windows guy, it’s a comparative campaign focusing on the competitor and not on the product itself. It always works, though. And the Windows guy singing like Johnny Cash is amazing.
Now, there’s only one [...]

Ok, you pay a Hollywood superstar a lot, shoot a commercial for the Italian market where she is nothing else than trapped in “Desperate Housewives”.
