Apple Posts New "Get A Mac" Ad: Referee

by , 3:05 PM EST, January 7th, 2008

Just in time for the NFL football playoffs, Apple has released a new "Get A Mac" ad that features an NFL-like instant replay review of the action. In this case, its not what Apple said, but what the Wall Street Journal said.

The ad is now featured at Apple.


The new ad ran prominently over the weekend during the NFL's Wildcard games, sometimes even during TV commercial breaks for official review of disputed calls. Whether that was coincidental or not is not known.
