They don't distinguish Microsoft from Apple - you can find directions and keep playlists on a Mac. Microsoft did the right thing with their "I'm a PC" (starting to fight back against the fallacy that PC users aren't cool). Compare with those, these are weak and forgettable.

They look like sucked in soul-less humans. It would hit better if the slogan was something like "Get a life". I don’t like this ads. They look like sucked in soul-less humans.

Ideally, they should have split the account between these and the current firm. These present a nice touch feely kind of thing that is unassailable. Whereas some people can complain about the current crop of ads, no one could touch these, and that would be pretty good for MS. I liked them.
