    Weird. But I'll admit I chuckled a few times and am warming up to Bill G. The latter is probably the best aspect of this series so far. Still...it's hard to stomach how much this is costing them and what exactly it's communicating to people outside of the online technorati.

    I agree, this is better, but still meh. It's at least funnier than the first one. But isn't this a bit long for a commercial? Are they cutting this down for prime time, or are they buying entire commercial blocks for it?

    I still wonder why Microsoft is running brand awareness ads. Seems pretty silly to me. They should at least be tying these into Vista somehow. Maybe they hope that if people think Bill Gates is a nice guy, they'll stop thinking of Microsoft as the ultimate evil empire. That could work, I guess.

    glimmer of that with the kid playing a video game in this one.
