MINI USA vs. Microsoft

Being a recent “switcher” to the Mac, I have been noticing more and more certain subtle jabs from each camp. Mac “fanboys”, as they are called, take swipes at Microsoft every chance they get, even if it is only comedic. “Winblows” users do the same ;). Well, it would seem that someone over at MINI USA’s marketing team has a sense of humor and may be on the Mac side of the fence.

In an animation displayed on the site, a large vehicle is shown, trying to parallel park into a tight spot. When the car can’t fit, a text bubble is displayed, showing text characters, representing curse words. One of the characters used happens to be the Windows logo. Quite funny, if I do say so myself.

  1. That is too cute! Many people I think feel that way about windows. Expecially the new products. Even though they are trying to copy Mac

  2. If you are ever in need of vitriol, check out the Linux crowd. They (we) are equal opportunity bashers. Go /. go!

  3. sBox – did not know you were a Linux user… VERY cool. One of the things I enjoy on the Mac is the ability to use my Linux commands on the terminal. See you on the track! Get that arm ready ;).
