Seinfield & Gates Called Off After Round 2
Computer world has a story up today that the new Microsoft Ad’s featuring Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfield are ending after two spots. The ad agency claims that they are now moving too stage 2 of the campaign featuring real Microsoft employees and Windows users talking about their PC’s. The new motto - “Hello, I am a PC”. Microsoft and their ad people are saying this was planned, but with Seinfield getting 10 million for the campaign I doubt that was for 2 spots originally. Regardless of why they are leaving, I will miss them as I thought they were entertaining, even if they had nothing to do with Windows. Gate’s famous mug shot being used on the shoe store frequent buyers club ID was GREAT!!
