Are we allowed to make it look stupid like a lot of those old Apple switch ads did?

Definitely yes. It would be so unbelievable for all people who know me. And I'd have so much fun telling how stupid they (Dell, M$ etc.) are. And I'd buy the coolest Mac available from the money. And I'd go to talkshows and tell that it was much fun but that I actally use Apple. And, first of all, I'd make sure the contract does not forbid the above things…

Hella yeah I'd do it. It'd be so funny. I'd get a copy of it for myself and we could all laugh about it for years to come.
And of course I'd use the money to promote the Macintosh platform.

No. I wouldn't do it, not if it were promoting a typical WinXP home machine.
High-end workstations/blade/server perhaps, but I wouldn't go on-air and tell people how much I love Windows. kak, gag, uhg.

I'd do it.
Remember, it's called "acting" for a reason.
You don't think Anthony Hopkins eats people in real life do you?

It's one thing to act, it's another to promote a life choice you do not agree with.

Seriously you won't ever hear me say, "Screw around kids, just make sure you use a condom"
or, "It's OK to do whatever feels good" or "It's OK to hate people based on their race" or "Use Windows it rocks!" or even "I like pop"

You're taking the whole Mac v. Win thing to seriously.
Using a windows computer isn't a "life choice". It's simply using a tool. Sometimes you can't afford the right tool, or sometimes any tool will get the job done. Mechanics would all like to use Snap-on, but sometimes we settle for a cheaper wrench. And sometimes we are forced use that wrench as a hammer. In the end, if the job gets done that's what matters.
Sometimes I have to use a windows-based computer and it hasn't ended my life. Now if they wanted me to say "Buy a Windows-based computer, it's better than an Apple computer", then I couldn't do it. But if they wanted me to say "Playing games on a PC is fun." then I would have no problem doing it. I love solitaire.

Brian says (9:16 AM): I was looking at houses in Ottawa... I actually have a temptation in me to move
Jeff ******* says (9:19 AM): Eww, Ottawa is gross. It's infested with politicians, and presently, 1 Harper as well.

Why is there always money for war, but none for education?
