Aspiring to greatness

Has anyone seen that Acer advert that is all over our TV screens at the moment?

The one where two obviously single women sitting in a cafe/restaurant are discussing how one of them has found 'the one' and how it is the perfect size and fits everywhere? Cue much double entendre and eye rolling. However it turns out she is talking about her new Aspire laptop - not her latest boyfriend (silly me for thinking that).

Then to top it all, a typical 'All American guy' comes along and guess what? He has one too. And it rocks! (yeah dude)

I always love ads from the IT industry because they are often the masters of cheese, and this one is certainly at the top of the cheese leaderboard.

However to its credit, Acer is now number one in European PC shipments, so these adverts must be having some sort of effect.
