The Work hard/Play Hard ad is pretty good.

And they ARE running the ads on VH1 (AKA MTV for adults).

----

An effective ad would be something like:

	[ page from Apple's ad where they crow about beating IBM in
	  the multitasking race ]

	"Sorry, Apple. We won that race three years ago."

	"Only the Amiga."
