They're actually ditching Jerry Seinfeld. I don't believe it.
According to this New York Times article, Microsoft will no longer be making commercials with Jerry Seinfeld. Must be nice to make $10 million for two commercials.
Instead, they're going with a John Hodgman look-alike, who tells us, "I'm a PC, and I've been made into a stereotype."
Again, I'm not trying to bash Microsoft. but they're making it so dang easy... We've apparently gone from "stupid" to "whiny".
Who knows? This may work well for them. It's probably a better move than the Seinfeld commercials were. I'm just starting to wonder whether I'm going to eat my words once I see the first commercial. Sure, it may be a better tactical move on their part, but something tells me the Seinfeld ads may be less annoying. Hmm...
