I'm sure the Nigerian Prince would hand over suspected scammers if you gave him your bank account routing number. It seems like a fair trade.

Microsoft Uses "I'm a PC" Character In New Ads 837

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Friday September 19, 2008 @12:44PM from the straight-for-the-jobsular dept.

arcticstoat writes to tell us that in the wake of their largely unsuccessful Jerry Seinfeld ad campaign Microsoft is setting their sights directly on recent Apple ads by featuring the "I'm a PC" character in their new advertising campaign. "He then follows this with another phrase, such as 'and I've been made into a stereotype' before the advert shifts to a range of people performing a diverse assortment of jobs, all of which also say they're a PC. Among those featured are astronaut Bernard Harris, as well as religious author Deepak Chopra and 'Desperate Housewives' actress Eva Longoria. The ad also features a wide range of anonymous people, including a shark diver, a teacher and a guy with a beard."
