Apple Intros New Holiday Get a Mac Ads

· by · News

 

Apple rolled out two new holiday-themed animated Get a Mac commercials on Monday evening. Both ads feature Justin Long as Mac and John Hodgman as PC in the same late 1960's Rankin and Bass animated style the company used for a holiday commercial last year.

Apple's Tree Trimming Get a Mac ad

I Can Do Anything and Tree Trimming forego the usual highlighting of Mac features and PC problems, but still manage to get their pro-Mac message out. Both are available in QuickTime format at Apple's Get a Mac Web site.

I think both ads are funny and cute.
Effective as they keep the Apple name in front of consumers.
