New Get a Mac commercial airs during Emmys
I'm lounging in the plush living room deep in the heart of the remote mountain that contains TUAW's HQ watching the Emmys and relaxing. Surely there would be no Apple news during this telecast, which TVSquad is covering live, right?Wrong. Nothing earth shattering, but Apple has debuted a new Get a Mac commercial during the Emmys (and more may be on the way). The ad touts the MacBook's MagSafe powercord while the 'PC' is in a few casts thanks to a nose dive off of a desk.
Apple's website has not been updated as of the writing of this post.
Update: Apple has updated their website, and all three new commercials are there. Enjoy.

I love how when it showed the Macbook, they pulled the power-cord out from off screen. And the little *pop* sound that goes with.

NP, for those who are interested, heres my synopsis :
" PC was in a wheelchair He tripped on his charger cord, then Mac was all rubbing the Magnetic charger in his face :P."

I like these batch of commercials. Looks like they're getting sillier. Now that everyone knows who they are by this point, they can probably be more creative with the ads.

Funny! these jokes are getting more and more nerd-only. "We tried fun once," is that a joke on Microsoft "Bob"?

Angel/devil is awful !

The angel/devil one doesn't really target a specific aspect of Windows. It's not as straightforward as the other ones, and it suffers because of it.
