image Anyone involved in Information Technology during the past five years is aware of the famous Apple “I’m a Mac…I’m a PC” TV Ad campaign.  Besides being simply hysterical, it also is credited with creating the greatest wave of Apple’s market share growth in history.  Unfortunately, Apple has decided to end this run of 30 second comedy spots.  They have even pulled all of them off of their website.  Lucky for us that fans of the series have archived them all on YouTube!

I usually feature comedy on Saturdays.  In the past, I have featured jokes, comics, cartoons, and news on the weekends.  Sometimes I include comics, stories, games, and photos.  By far, though, videos with Information Technology (IT) themes have been the most popular.  So I have gone back to this endless well! 

For this week, I have picked this video to share with you as follow-up.  It is called “Buy a Mac”… It is by Apple Computers and compiled by nahu090yt. It is a seven minute compilation of the first 15 classic commercials from this campaign.  I am sure that with a little YouTube searching, you could easily find the entire series of commercials.

I hope that I gave you a good chuckle to make your weekend a little more meaningful.  I will be back Monday with more serious IT topics!

I will miss this ad campaign.

What did you think of the video?  Did you like it? Do you know of any other similar movies or clips?  Please share.

That is my Information Technology Thought of the Day (ITTOD) for May 29, 2010.
