It's a little bit different than the one we have here, funny nonetheless:

What tomfoolery. The reason the "IAMIAPC" ads worked so well is cuz the casting of the 2 guys was so similar to Gates and Jobs. The first couple were almost unsettling watching them playing out their respective characters. As the characters grew old, predictable, and especially as Justin Long (a.k.a. Mac) changed his appearance away from Jobs-lookalike drifting instead towards cool-slacker-hippy-dude, they lost their "magic". The UK ads might be funny, maybe even mocking British humour in general, but to me they are barely register as an "also ran". Funny thing is, even the original Hodgins/Long ads weren't persuasive to me in buying a Mac -- only playing around with my brother's baby is getting me there. :)


I like one of the comment, though...
