    So the fact that all the problems are software based proves that those PC bashing commercials are unfair and inaccurate. It's like I've always said, it's not the PC that's the problem, it's Windows. If OSX was designed to run on the average PC, ther would be no PC basing commericals.

The 'PC' in the ads is a Windows-based PC, so you have to take the system as a collective whole when viewing. Honestly now, who else besides Windows-users are these ads aimed at? Certainly not those using Linux or any other OS.

      Could Apple have used 'Windows' of 'Windows PC' in the ads? Sure, but that would have sounded silly and long-winded. To the target audience, a PC is Windows running on a Dell or HP or whatever. It's really that simple.
