Apple's new Window iMac commercial was among the top performers during this year's 74th annual Academy Awards, according to a report by The Intermedia Advertising Group (IAG), which rated commercials' effectiveness on the ability of select users to remember the commercial/brand (brand recall) and to associate the ad's message with the brand or company (message recall) as well as the general likeability of the advertisement.  Diet Pepsi's Cindy Crawford ad was "off the charts" in all categories--and was the clear winner in likeability and brand recall.

    So they should have had Ms. Crawford mugging with the iMac instead of that guy.

    Not a bad point, and "s***" certainly sells, but I do like the persona of the guy in the Apple's current ad... friendly, warm and playful works very well here, too.

    What would make the Cindy version of the "Window" iMac ad better would be if instead of sticking out her tonge, she flashes her cans.

    Now *that* would generate response. :)

    No Goldblum

    Maybe people liked the Apple ad so much because it was a welcome change from their old commercials starring Jeff Goldblum being annoying and irritating.

    Whoa, an epiphany.

    Cindy and the iMac's smooth, sturdy metal shaft of a neck. Whoooaaa...
