I know quite a lot, but still, Mac sales suck here. Apple Australia suck.

I quite like the iPod ads as we see them in the UK, I do wish they'd show the device itself a little more, even if it was a shot at the end.

I wish they'd never got U2 involved though, it put me off the iPod for years.

Well, the new iPod nano ads certainly _do_ show the device, eh?

i think they have the crazziest commercials out there, but that gets your attention and your like "What are they doing?" and you get sucked in (like i was) and buy an iPOD or an imac..... their advertising obviously works! :-p

Never forget the 1984 ad!

I think the sillhouette ads (posters) are great for repetition, which is a technique that is effective in advertising. That dog said Beggin' (Bacon) a million times....

Companies dont necessarily NEED to show the product, Playstation commercials start with the logo on a black background then display a wierd situation loosely related to a game they are trying to advertise; showing auto insurance papers would be terribly dull....hence the silly and stupid humor of the GEICO commercials...
