I'm glad people are talking about this. I think the laptop hunter ads have been great and show the variety of PCs out there.

What do you guys think?

Re: Apple demanded Microsoft to stop its Laptop Hunters ads

Apple brought this upon themselves. As a Mac user and a PC user, I did not find Apple's "I'm a Mac" ads honest. I do find the Laptop Hunter ads informative and useful because it shows a variety of PC options and then Apple's option.

I hope that MS will keep up the pressure on Apple. Macs are overpriced and clearly these ads are taking some toll on Apple.

Good work MS!
