As being reported on our favorite Mac news site. Hs anyone else seen this ad? I need to watch more TV. I think having Yo Yo Ma do a switch ad is a great Idea.

No, but I did see the Yo Ma Ma switch ad.

She's so fat, she's got her own zip code. At least her printer always works.

I know--it's like saying, "I'm Jerry Rice, and I play catch."
I am stupidest when I try to be funny.

Unfortunately, classical music really isn't very popular in this country. Every time I go to a concert, I'm surrounded by a bunch of grey-haired retirees. Sad to say most people in this country probably has no idea who Yo-Yo Ma is.

Haha I guess it's good to have a big name person like that, but I didn't think his ad was really convincing at all. Ah well...
