"In Apple's ad, a woman with blond hair and a get-up like Olivia Newton-John might've worn in her Physical video, runs into a sci-fi setting packed with bald human drones who are listening to their leader address them on a giant TV. The aerobics woman, chased by storm trooper types, throws a sledgehammer through the screen.
"Afterward, she no doubt gets arrested and tortured, but the commercial ends before that happens."
-- Kevin Maney, 2004-01-28
[The memorable Macintosh ad was shown 1983-12-31 on a single television station so as to qualify for awards given out in 1984 covering 1983, and then to a national audience during Super Bowl XVIII on 1984-01-22, thirty years ago today.]
