New Laptop Hunters Ad; Lauren ditches a Mac and buys a PC for $971.99
My friend from Redmond Pie, Taimur Asad just spotted the newest Laptop Hunters Ad and it seems like Microsoft have taken another shot at the expensive prices of Macs. This time Sue, the mother and her daughter Lauren go Laptop Hunting with a budget of $1700. Instead they end up buying a lightweight Dell with long battery life for just $971.99. While it still cost something to buy the PC, but the look on Sue’s face when she sees the $1999 price tag on the Macbook? Priceless!!
