Interesting to read in today’s Silicon Valley News that both Microsoft and Intel are feeling the pressure from the competition and will more than likely ramp up their marketing and advertising budgets. Makes sense to me with Microsoft’s Windows monopoly and Intel’s X86 CPO processor hegemony both starting to fray at the edges. Problem is both companies use the same agency… McCann San Francisco. And these are the people responsible for the truly awful campaigns that feature Lap Dancers for Intel and office workers wearing papier-mâché Dinosaur heads for Microsoft. Both of which are embarrasingly awful. So, I would offer a word of advice to whoever worked on them… Do not put these abominations on your reel. Do not even own up to the fact you were in the building when they were being worked on. Go volunteer for some charity work. There are better things to do with your life than be associated with such rubbish!!!
Before you put your account at McCann SF... Remember, you have been warned!
