Found Footage: Letterman takes on Mac vs. PC
You know how it goes. The dumpy guy is supposed to be the PC and the cool guy is the Mac. Right? David Letterman decided to redefine the Mac vs PC conflict, enlisting Chris Elliott to play Mac. Here's Letterman's take on the whole phenomenon. Let's just say that Mac doesn't make out quite so well as he usually does. And Chris Elliott is no Justin Long.

some of the spoofs out there are funny. this one wasn't.
and the fact that letterman can't tell which one is the mac and which one is the pc despite every commercial beginning with "Hello, I'm a Mac. And I'm a PC", maybe those heart bypasses are starting to make letterman a bit lacking in the intelligence area (not to mention hilarity).
unfunniest ... knock off ... ever.

Letterman on Bill Gates here, btw: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_o9isZY5h0
That was just plain stupid... but what do you expect from stupid ole Letterman.

Anyone who suggests that CBS's corporate interest dictates or even influences Letterman's comic decisions though, undertands nothing about the man or his show.
I guess that's what happens when Viacom and MS are in business together.
Viacom owns CBC and Late Show and Letterman. MS and Viacom have interests in each other.
