Mac Takes Bite Out of Vista in New Mac vs. PC Ad

Shortly after a Bill Gates interview in which he discusses Vista and finally blows his top about Apple, Apple releases its latest Mac vs. PC ad. And it looks like they’re getting meaner: this one features a Secret-Service-looking guy standing behind the humanized Mac and PC. Every time they say something he asks, “Cancel or allow?”

The ad pokes fun at Vista’s hyper-anal new security features, which, if this ad is any authority, may hamper the user experience rather than improve it.

We don’t know about you but we’re pretty sick of the Mac vs. PC campaign, particularly now that they’re getting damn snarky. Really, how old are we, five?
