I love a condiment with booze in it...

As people who know me, may well I have noticed, I'm not the biggest fan of Microsoft and perhaps they were eyeing people like me when they decided to blow £166 million to improve the image of Vista and counter the effect of Apple's Mac vs PC commercials.

It's supposed to help redefine the meaning and value of Windows...hmmm.......

Jerry Seinfeld (didn't he have Mac sitting in his lounge on his show?) is being paid £5.5 million for this and how amusing (spot the irony) that Bill Gates is performing as his sidekick. He's the straight guy to Seinfeld's witty performance (?!)

Is 54 yr old Seinfeld, who's heyday was in a 1990's sitcom, the sort of cutting edge personality to try and make Windows Vista look cool compared to the Mac? Yeah that really 'connects' with people.

All I can say is, the guys at Apple who create their ads must be really quaking in their boots..
