Flat-tery Screen
I caught my first glimpse of a new Gateway all-in-one Profile 4 commercial tonight during prime time. It pits their consumer oriented flat screen model square against the iMac. Though I had some terse words to say when the original iMac seemed needlessly redesigned (really, I was just broken hearted), I can safely say after looking at a Wintel knock-off side by side, that Apple’s version is hands down the most elegant looking personal computer on the market today.
It is clear that PC manufacturers couldn’t design their way out of a paper bag. But imitation is the highest form of flattery—not to mention free advertising. I can’t wait to get bombarded with these commercials.
