I strongly disagree that Mac is better than Vista, both are equally
proprietary that denies their users basic freedoms. Switching would
just mean serving a different master. Thus, including Mac would
highlight to the public that it is as bad as Vista. We do not want
people to abandon Vista just to see them switching to Mac, do we?

Anyway, if we are going to produce a spoof, I suggest sticking to the
original theme of the "Mac" advertisement since they are already
famous. A cast of 2 men and 1 woman a la Novell spoofs works wonder
since the viewers could immediately see the difference.
