A New Commercial for Apple: Mac and PC Meet Linux
[Usual white backdrop with usual music]
PC: Hello, I’m a PC.
Mac: And I’m a Mac.
Linux [Jumping in from off screen with a big smile. Linux is wearing jeans, flip-flops, a whacky t-shirt, an old tweed blazer, and thick framed glasses. A mash up, he’s got tattoos on his arms and a boyish charm. Part geek, part hippy, part punk]: MAC!!!
Mac: Linux! What’s up, man?
PC [A bit snarkily]: And who might this be, Mac? Another one of your “friends,” I assume.
Mac: Oh! Linux, this is PC. Linux is kind of like my cousin. You could say we’re cut from the same kernal.
Linux [Presenting a bag of candy and holding some out as if to offer to Mac and PC]: I brought snacks!
Mac [Holding out hands to accept some treats]: He loves to share.
PC [Arms folded, PC’s already had enough.]: Uh. No thanks, I don’t really like sharing. And… I don’t really know where you’ve been. [Raising finger as if making a point, turning and walking away] Now, if you’ll excuse me I have to configure some things.
Linux [Super excited and walking after PC]: Oh! I love configuring things!
PC [Looking over shoulder a bit frightened and starting to nerdishly jog quickly away]
Linux [Chasing after PC]: Oh, come on, where’s the love? Open up a little!
Mac [Charmingly smiles and shrugs shoulders at camera]
[End]
Obviously, since I missed out on being the Mac, I’d want to be cast as Linux :)
