Ew.

Please, curb your derogatory remark to a more polite and proper etiquette. Per chance, I might be willing to listen.

Not that there's anything wrong with that? Wait, no. It's just wrong.

I am agreeing with Dork-face? Cripes the lion is lying down with the lamb....the end of the world is nigh.

Switch tunes awful quick on Dvorak there, just because it's bashing your least-favorite company? Sick.

So's the writeup, and after I saw it was by Dvorak it all made sense that it was so twisted. The only one reading kinky sex out of that ad is someone with their own sexual problems.

Yeah, I've got to say that nothing that comes out of Dvorak's brain should be taken very seriously. He has no credibility, he just HAPPENS to be close to the truth on this one.

Bill gates wiggling his middle aged man butt?? eeewwwwwoooo.

Apparently Dvohack knows something about this topic.

I still think Dvorak is a hit troll

It's very fitting that a hit whore sees a sexual theme there.

Notice that no one's mentioning Windows, Office, or really even Microsoft (except to note that it's Microsoft which is footing the bill for these wasted clips).

All they're talking about is how Seinfeld and Gates are in this really bad ad together.

Yeah, that will sell a bunch of copies of Vista!

I guess Dvorak proves that even a broken watch still has the right time twice a day.

After viewing this ad, I'm starting to believe they might actually have something with the Mojave Experiment.

Once again, he's off his meds.

Gates is a tasteless fool and Seinfeld is an ego looking for praise and applause.

The ad is crap and Dvorak is correct - the ad could be about anything, so he has chosen his interpretation.

Lets move on......

If this is Microsoft's attempt to counter the successful Apple ads then we have nothing to worry about!

After seeing the frightening a$$ wiggle the first time - I can't ever bear to see it again, I always look away or change the channel. Gross.

The next commercial features Bill and Jerry tapping out code to each other in an airport men's room.

Is one of them supposed to be moist and the other chewy?

Bill Gates. Jerry Seinfeld. Both past their prime, just like the company they're promoting.

"rigid churros" ?!!
Hmm, maybe I should put down my Beaver Tail and try one (or two) of those!

Steve Ballmer watching new Microsoft commercial:

Fap, Fap, Fap

MDN, please only refer to this commercial as "Rigid Churros" from here forward.

They look more turgid than rigid.

This seems like just the kind of ad DvORK would love.

"I just threw-up a little in my mouth!"

(after seeing Bill Gates shake his butt)

I think the real danger as of late is that John Dvorak is starting to become cool.

Dvorak actually got something right? Oh yeah... it all makes sense now. He's actually proving the old adage...

A thousand monkeys on a thousand typewriters for a thousand years....

Guess it was his turn to accidentally turn up a jewel amidst the brown muck.

Hey, maybe in another thousand years he'll write something Shakespearean. <g>

John C. your on to something. Your right. But, kinky sex pickup lines? Your letting your imagination run away from you. Please Microsoft no more commercials.

I vote #4. Dead on accurate.

"Steve Ballmer watching new Microsoft commercial"

Actually, Ballmer was in the commercial. Why do you think Gates had to adjust his shorts? Very subtle.

Jerry S - a Mac user - is laughing all the way to the bank. no matter how bad or totally off the mark the commercial is.

I have to admit: I think Dvorak hit the nail on the head.

Unfortunately, it also implies something about Dvorak: his TRUE area of expertise MAY be in kinky, sadomasochistic sex.

Uh-oh, John. Don't look now, but your thong and whip just might be showing.

KY anyone?

This ad really sucks no matter how you look at it.
Just like Microsoft.

Your "entry" killed me.

I'm still laughing!

BTW was that Senator Larry Craig peering in the window behind all the Mexicans?

@MDN,

I believe the word was 'pleather', as in a cheap, crappy knock off of the real thing. You know, like Windows!

Dvorak sure knows alot about gay kinky sex and code words

Hmm, interesting. Gates does get his churro in the end.

But I didn't notice him sitting there in the traditional Larry Craig "wide stance".

Uh-oh, John. Don't look now, but your thong and whip just might be showing.

Nah, this just proves Ballmer monkey humps Dvorak too.

Something we've long suspected anyway.

The next commercial features Bill and Jerry tapping out code to each other in an airport men's room.

Followed by Bill & Jerry squirting each-other with their, um, Zunes.

Hasn't anyone noticed "Bill and Jerry" being suspiciously close to "Ben and Jerry"?

MS can't even knock-off homosexuality right.

"Gates does get his churro in the end."

I hope he washes it off after.

Dvorak is projecting, big time.

Dvorak is a hit whore. end of story. he just now figured out the tide is turning and he can get more hits over bashing this ad than attacking Apple. it isn't that difficult to figure out.....

Sep 10, 08 - 10:46 pm Comment from: onionhead

pfft...reminds me of waylon smithers toadying to mr. burns?

Hello, Mr. Gates. Please put on these light blue swim trunks and leather jacket. Now see, the idea is to water ski over that jump in the water over there. But the kicker is - get this! - you're going to be making the jump over a shark! Its brilliant! People are going to love it. Trust me.

I told ya it had homosexual overtones. Even Dvorak picked up on that.

I thought he said "pleather."

I think we, and Apple, should forgive Seinfeld for being a "traitor to the cause". All he's actually done, so far, is taken MS money and openly linked the MS brand with "confusion". So ... now more people are aware that MS is "confused", or (at least) "confusing". Now, in this highly political year (one out of four), Americans are familiar with speakers becoming confused and with speakers becoming confusing, and with them just going "off-message". Sometimes they even VOTE for the silly sods. Usually, though, it is seen as a sign of weakness, something to be backed away from. Except, perhaps, when a pretty face is added to the mix.
