Microsoft’s CEO Steve Ballmer trys to spoil Apple’s day

Microsoft knows that today is all about Apple, so it was a bit obvious that they would want to try and spoil their party. So how can they manage to spoil Apple’s day, well CEO, Steve Ballmer tried his best.

Well firstly we have the new Microsoft ads “I’m a PC ad”. It looks as though Microsoft is all up for a war on all of Apple’s products. Microsoft says that PC’s are cheaper than Mac’s; the only Mac that is upgradable costs a massive $2,799. A lot more than a PC then

It does seem to me that Microsoft is grabbing at straws, who care who does what. The ones who make the decision as to what is better Is the one purchasing the PC or Mac. Why not let them decide which is better. Why doesn’t Microsoft let Apple have their time in the spotlight today.

    I say apple threw the gauntlet first with the obvious “bill gates vs college kid” ads they have been running for months now. So microsoft is fighting back. Wouldn’t you?

    Congrats… this is quite possibly the dumbest statement in the MS vs. Apple saga.

    What the heck are you talking about? Since when did corporate competition turn into some elementary school playground where everyone needs to get equal treatment?

    good for microsoft……. i was in the “im a pc ad” and i’ve loved every minute of it…
    now steve is doing the right thing when in comes to advertising againts apple.

    who freaging buys apple computers anyway oh the “status quo”folks i see.
    i never liked apple products they’r too expensive they dont really cater to the mainstream market. all it is good for is so that “u look sophisticated” as if not being able to upgrade a device u paidd for $2000.00 is a mark of sophistication.
