My goal this summer is to not be as pale as that "Computer Programmer." Then again I could be stereotyped into what Apple thinks I am as a user of Apple products, which is clearly NOT me.
The Apple commercial with the Japanese girl in it was definitely funny. By far the new "Out of the Box" commercial is my favorite!<KevinSmithChasingAmyStyledRant>Perhaps Apple should hire Spike Lee to make their next set of commercials! Maybe someone should also mention how Apple has now started to sell iPods, and MacBook's in black, but do not have any commercials with any people of ethnicity other than the White Anglo-Saxon Protestant's (one of them might be jewish...) and with the exception of that Japanese girl. What are they really saying? That only White Anglo-Saxon Protestant's and Asians, specifically the Japanese buy Apple products? I just find it all to ironic that Apple being the progressively "think different", "designed in california" company that it is, is now using this marketing ploy. In all fairness, products need to be marketed, that's a given. Here's the kicker, with technology, specifically computer products, it's all about the experience, and I think that's where the marketing of these kinds of products need to evolve. That's what is REALLY important! </KevinSmithChasingAmyStyledRant>
