IBM + Linux commercial
 
for those whom though IBM didn't support Linux, I found this commercial here

I liked it ;)

Ibm rocks, hope more pc-producer will do the same.

Love that commercial, but didn't they come out a while ago? I remember seeing something like this before

old ad man , but still thanks for sharing it in here.
Atleast , it is an eye-opener for some who have not seen or heard of it...

robogymnast 05-17-2006 11:24 PM

Yeah, still one of my all time favorite ads. I think they did a really good job with them.

yea, when that add was came out, there was a few of them (I think one aired on a superbowl) and the theme was something along the lines of a "13 year old that can change the world."

I guess these days, nobody wants to see a pimply faced, cracking voiced, 15 y/o linux on TV. Thats not nearly as cute.

It's part of a series of Linux ads actually.
Check out http://ibm.com/open
And find a link (in the flash or html version) to "Visionary"

The Flash version has more little ads you can view,
but as we all know, Flash doesn't really work well on Linux...
here is the link to the HTML page with (only) 3 ads:
http://www-306.ibm.com/e-business/on...rt_linux.shtml

By the way, Redhat also made a few ads,
in a very different style,
you can watch them here:

A friend of mine sent me a link to the same video, but with spanish subtitles.
I just wanted to share it here.
