Microsoft Says Bye Bye Jerry
NEW YORK (RUSHPRNEWS) 9/19/2008--New York Times’ Stuart Elliot article yesterday discussed Microsoft’s 300 million dollar campaign to re-image and reposition itself after being “stereotyped” by Apple ads. Apple ads have long been using “I’m a PC” to compare Microsoft products to Apple. Microsoft’s new ad uses an engineer who states “Hello, I’m a PC and I’ve been made into a stereotype.   ” This counterattack ad is not only thing Mic

Microsoft has Eva and Pharrell take Jerry’s spot.

We're getting ready to start the second phase. This was the

Microsoft Ditches Seinfeld For Pharrell Williams
SEATTLE (RUSHPRNEWS) 09/19/2008–N.E.R.D front man Pharrell Williams is set to join a list of celebrities involved in a new $300 million advertising campaign for Microsoft. According to reports, the change is due to consumer’s poor response to their previous campaign featuring comedian Jerry Seinfeld and Microsoft founder Bill Gates. In one of the poorly received ads, Seinfeld and Gates are shown chit chatting while shopping for shoes. The other ad featured the pair engaged in conversation at

Microsoft Dumps Jerry Seinfeld for Pharrell and Eva Longoria
Less than a month ago, Microsoft announced that it had tapped comedian Jerry Seinfeld for its "hip" new Windows Vista ads (also featuring Microsoft chairman Bill Gates) that were going to finally stand up to Apple's wildly popular "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" commercials. But now, the Wall Street Journal, which originally broke the story, reports that Windows is moving into "phase two" of their $300 million ad campaign—and the 54-year-old comic has gotten the boot.  Perhaps realiz

Eva Longoria, John Hodgman clone lead Seinfeld replacements at Microsoft [Advertising]
With Jerry Seinfeld gone, Microsoft's new ad campaign will become an aggressive response to Apple's Mac vs. PC ads, with actress Eva Longoria, singer Pharrell Williams, author Deepak Chopra and a slew of what the New York Times calls "everyday PC users, from scientists and fashion designers to shark hunters and teachers," proudly proclaiming "I'm a PC." In one ad, a Microsoft engineer who looks like John Hodgman, the actor who plays PC in Apple's commercials, will the commercial: "Hello, I’m a PC, and I�

Pharrell Set To Take Part In Microsoft’s New Marketing Campaign

I’m a PC (Microsoft Ad)
Microsoft are such tools. They spend hundreds of millions of dollars on ads and all that they can think of is trying to emulate the Apple - Get a Mac ads.

Microsoft Launches Plan B, Er, Phase Two
A day after confirming the dumping of Mr. Seinfeld, Microsoft has rolled out phase two of their image-resuscitating campaign with a commercial dubbed "Pride," featuring avowed PC users attempting to reassert the self-esteem they lost through years of watching Apple's "I'm a Mac" ads. Among those trying to make Microsoft cool: Tony and Eva Longoria Parker, a much-hyped John Hodgman lookalike, a pontificating Deepak Chopra, a stage-bound Pharrell Williams and, yes, Bill Gates.

Microsoft Denies Jerry Seinfeld Ads Were Pulled
Computer giant Microsoft has denied reports they pulled their advertising campaign, starring Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates, off the air early following heavy criticism.

Jerry Seinfeld’s terrible Microsoft Ad
Jerry Seinfeld is said to have been paid around $10 million to represent Microsoft in a campaign that will cost the company $300 million. There are surely more ridiculous douche-tastic commercials coming, but this one takes the cake. Pretty much literally, considering the ending, which people on The Huffington Post are saying basically means “let them eat cake.” This commercial makes no sense, isn’t funny, and just brings it home how out of touch Microsoft is. Seinfeld isn’t funny or
