Well, I just got a Dell catalog in the mail, and they're adopting Apple's "Center of your Digital World" strategy.

Can't they come up with anything for themselves? This is 100% blatent. Design, however, can be less obvious, but this is definitely infringing on Apple's ad campaign.

Is this worse than Steven? Vote!

I vote it's terribly unintelligent and totally not creative to copy Apple's marketing, but Steven is downright lame and blatantly stupid. Thus, Steven is still my worst-hated Dell ad.

I don't know why Apple never bothers to sue other companies but they send legal letters to every Mac Fan who makes a OSX theme for OS9.

Don't forget that MS also wants to be the center of your sex life. Imagine the ad campaign for that.
