New Apple "Get a Mac" ads soon?

Though its ads are frequently polarizing, Apple continues to produce new "Get a Mac" commercials as part of a concerted effort to take advantage of its resurgent influence in technology. Word has arrived from blogger Nick Starr that Apple has begun showing new ads in the campaign at its stores ahead of potential Internet or television appearances. The three new segments continue the earlier approach. One of these (pictured) is said to feature model Gisele Bündchen and likely focuses on Apple's computer design, while a second sees the main actors in business suits and a third presents them in psychotherapy. The commercials' introduction may be timed to coincide with Apple's special event later this month. See photos of the other two ads after the jump.

The ad with the dude in a dress rips off the old saying "Comparing Mac OS to Windows is like comparing a real woman to a transvestite"

Is it just me, or in the second picture, does it look like PC is trying to see what the customer is holding?

I live near two Apple stores. Both of them have had the theaters removed to expand the Genius bar.

safe to assume that the 'girls' are supposed to represent the PC vs. Mac case/design. it's like the old adage, "looks like a pig wearing lipstick."
