Sorry if I missed this posted somewhere else, but I sure didn't see it... Check out this new ad posted by Apple:

Anyone here understand Japanese? Hope they are funny, 'cuz I sure got a kick out of them. (Smiley added for emphasis) Guess the concept is here to stay for a bit longer.

It's cool that they gave them their own actors, instead of just dubbing. It's funny how they saw, "hankyhanky" in the virus ad, hehe.

I wonder how they'll do the "network" ad...

Speaking of dubbing, I hate the PC's voice in the French version.

You had me at asl

The iLife one is completely hilarious IMHO, mostly due to the actors.
Goes like this:
Mac: Hey! I'm a Mac
PC: Goodday, I'm a PC
Mac: Ooh! An iPod! What are you listening to?
PC: Eurobeat.
Mac: Eurobeat?! Ooh...
PC: The iPod's great! iTunes' so nice. It's really fun. *
Mac: On the Mac, the iLife suite makes pictures and movies just as fun. *
PC: Ooh... iLife... I've also got some cool software.
Mac: What's that?
PC: Spreadsheets!*
Mac: And...?
PC: Statistics!**
Mac: ...

* Probably a bad/incomplete translation due to my limited knowledge of japanese
** Should be "Financial software", but this fits better
*** Not sure if it's Statistics or Clock as the two words are very similar. The first one fit better.

Converted 07/2005.

I believe the English version says "clock", so it would make sense for this to say it too.
