Is this product placement?
I'm a Mac man through and through.
I've been using and loving Mac computers for as long as I can remember.
I've got several other Apple products at home. All of which I love.
But I have to say the whole Apple fanaticism can be a tad tiring.
Which is why I absolutely lurve this Apple spoof from The Simpsons.
It's brilliant. The detailing is second to none.
And my favourite bit?
That surely has to be the homage to the 1984 TV spot where the Comic Book Guy hurls the sledgehammer.

Squeal.
God bless The Simpsons.
I love that Lisa wants the white earphones just for the kudos. Pah. Who needs the tunes.
Word has it that Steve Jobs is so "involved" he even signs off the media plans for lil ol Oz.
Very funny. My favourite part was when Jobs says "I have an announcement ..." and they all pull out their money.
2nd was "flay him with your ear buds"
I ma not a fan of the Simpsons but that scene had a lot of trueisms in it which made it funny.
Yuck. Sorry, but I've hated the last 10 years of The Simpsons. The writing these days is so clunky and contrived. These days the characters are just vehicles for any old opinion/joke the team of writers feels like making come out of their mouths.
Compare with the classics (say, seasons 3-5) and you'll see what I mean.
combine the simpsons and apple and you've got digg heaven. 7,000 diggs for a clip satirising the stereotypical digg user. simpsons and apple can't put a foot wrong!
I have no idea what to feel. Hehe. But yes, love the money angle throughout.
