Strange Bedfellows
Here’s an odd one: 50 Cent and Apple Computers are becoming business partners. What? Seriously, 50 and Apple are in talks to have a 50 Cent branded Apple computer that would be targeted (and priced) towards those with lower incomes. Thats right, hardcore gangsta 50 Cent and nerdy preppy Apple are joining forces. The only thing funnier then that is the fact that I helped get my sister an Apple laptop which she can’t stand because of the lack of a right click on the mouse. Now thats funny people.
On a related note, anyone seen those new Apple commercials with the two guys, one representing Apples and the other being a PC? I actually think they are pretty funny (I’m a huge John Hodgeman fan) but Seth Stevenson, Slate’s ad guy, only gives them a C-. His reasoning is they don’t make him want to by an Apple. They don’t make me want to either (I’m quite happy with my Dell) but I give them props for creativity. If I only bought products based on commercials I’d be a total Apple guy. Like my sister though, I need that right click button. Unlike her, my computer has one. Sucka.
is the mouse in the shape of a glock?
