The actor who played the role of Mac in the CM series “Mac and PC” released by Apple from 2006 to 2009 now appears in Intel’s CM, PC with Intel chip is superior to M1 Mac I’m advertising the point.
Mac-kun, this time appearing in Intel’s commercial
From 2006 to 2009, Apple aired the CM series “Mac-kun and PC-kun,” which compared Macs and Windows PCs.
At that time, the actor Justin Long was playing the role of Mac.
Former Mac-kun and Mr. Long appeared in Intel’s CM series “Justin Gets Real” this time, comparing PC and Mac, what can be done on PC but not on Mac I’m emphasizing.
Introducing features that are not on Mac but on PC
Each video begins with a self-introduction saying, “Justin. He’s a real person who actually compares Macs and PCs.” One video explains that the MacBook Pro cannot be used as a tablet, whereas the Intel-equipped machine (Lenovo Yoga 9i) can be used not only as a laptop but also as a tablet.
In another video, Long visits a user playing games on an MSI Gaming Stealth with an Intel Core i7. When asked where the Mac is, the answer is “No one plays games on the Mac.”
In other videos, Long casually advertises the advantages of Intel-chip PCs, including the fact that the MacBook Pro doesn’t have a touchscreen and that the M1 Mac can’t have multiple external displays.
A series of commercials starring Mr. Long can be viewed on Intel’s YouTube channel.
Appeared in Huawei commercials
By the way, this is not the first time Mr. Long has appeared in a commercial for Apple’s rival company. In 2017, he also appeared in a Huawei commercial.
Meanwhile, John Hodgeman, who played the role of PC in “Mac and PC,” appeared at the M1 Mac announcement event in November 2020, ending the event with plenty of humor.
