 Stupid PC commercials.
The worst has got to be the one with the Dance tunes going in the background while they sing
"Do you really what a clone?.........Do you really what a clone?"
I was so annoyed with the nonsense of making fun of Clone's that I don't even know what they were advertising I thin it was IBM.
I hope that someday we will be able to put away our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people.

I really despise the radio shack commercials with howie long. Radio Shack should change their saying to "You've got questions, we've got cheaply made computers to make you call us to ask them"

Well, there really is very little PC advertising on TV down here. We get the odd IBM commercial, but generally, they're quite good.
The new Camry ads here are an abomination too, any of the ads for WWF matches make me chuckle, and the ads portraying perfect, functional family units, enjoying each others company, over a bucket of fried chicken, they usually arouse feelings in my colon.

Oops,.. I guess that doesn't really have anything to do with a PC. But I still hate that commercial.

I watch those idiots on QVC selling their junk for exorbitant prices just for the chuckle value.

Same here. It is for IBM desktop PCs.
I rant and rage everytime it comes on by screaming back "Yes, I *do* want a clone - not some inferior product built from lowest-bidder parts!!!"

I can't stand this radio ad for Future Shop (who has been recently bought up by Best Buy) talking about "the local computer geek who would come over to your house and set up your new PC. Well, that's the kind of support you'll get from Future Shop..."
Any of you with an ounce of knowledge about Best Buy computer support - well Future Shop isn't any better. And soon all the Future Shop stores will be converted into Best Buy's...

I've got one thats kinda...different...
The Cox communications ad where the guy is driving home with a couple of guys he works with, and the first guys opens the door and jumps out onto his lawn while the car is driving, and the second guy in the car gets is helmet ready, cuz he's gonna get dumped in his yard too, all because the guy driving is in a rush to get on his puter and surf the net on his cable modem....
The best parody commercial is that of Dell's first add with "Steven" ANYHOO! , here's a link to the parody, click on the "Video Highlight" on the right side of the page!

We have a commercial for cable hi-speed access, it is a parody of one of those collector shows where they appraise an antique on the show. The guy on the commercial apprases an external 56k modem that was dug up by the family dog as worthless.
