"Get a Mac" campaign (US)
Play
The Get a Mac campaign is the successor to the Switch ads that were first broadcast in 2002. It ran from 2006 to 2009 and a total of 66 ads were made.
The ads play on perceived weaknesses of non-Mac personal computers, especially those running Microsoft Windows, of which PC is clearly intended to be a parody, and corresponding strengths possessed by the Mac OS (such as immunity to circulating viruses and spyware targeted at Windows). The target audience of these ads is not devoted PC users but rather, those who are more likely to "swing" towards Apple. Apple realizes that many consumers who choose PCs do so because of their lack of knowledge of the Apple brand. With this campaign, Apple was targeting those users who may not consider Macs when purchasing but may be persuaded to when they view these ads.
The Get a Mac campaign received the Grand Effie Award in 2007.
