End of Gates-Seinfeld Ads

Microsoft has announced that the Gates-Seinfeld commercials/ads for Windows, which are part of a $300 million marketing campaign, are ending. New ads will be in place to combat Apple’s “PC vs Mac” instead of the subliminal “buy a churro” message, which I much more prefer.

Some claim that this is a planned phase in the Microsoft campaign, but I think after the millions of “wtf’s” were heard across the nation, Microsoft is shifting gears and putting up a defense. Microsoft is admitting that the Apple ads are hurting them, instead of taking it on the cheek and saying “Here, look at the Seinfeld. Look at the silly Seinfeld!” I, personally, would concede to the Chewbacca defense over any other.

Update: A Gizmodo source claims that the Gates-Seinfeld ads have not been completely abandoned and one more might release.
