Not Tony Hawk!  :(  

Well, o.k., you can have Tony Hawk.

But I bet Rodney Mullen uses Linux!  :D  

Or maybe Mark Gonzales!  :D  

Or maybe Lance Mountain!  :D  

Nahhhh....who am I kidding?  
*meow!* I didn't say Linux was easier, I said it was better, Dumbass!

Nope, they are for real.

Rent Tony Hawk pro skater 3, watch the ending movies and for sure Tony has butloads of Mac's. Infact all of the skaters do, even Rodney Mullen.

That add is actually what sorta legitimized the campaign to me, cuz' Tony is a real died in the wool Mac user.
Psyjax! I RULEZZZZ!!! HAR HAR HAR

Your right, 100% of skate videos are made on a mac.  A few of my friends film and edit video for osiris shoes and everything is done on a mac, except slow mow's witch are done on a beta deck.  Hopefully I will be getting a job there too, just doing titles and assistant type shit.

I know most of you will probably think I'm full of shit, but I use dto be a sponsored skater.
13 years ago!
I rode for Santa Cruz and Independent. I knew Rodney Mullen and skated Tony's miniramp at his house.

Back then, most people I knew didn't even HAVE computers yet, but if they did , it was a Mac.    

They were definitely fun days.

And this, though not a "switch" ad is just more M$ propaganda.
This story is supposed to have been written by a 12 year old.


Keep that in mind when you read the article.

Why doesn't the rest of the world yet see what a pathetic joke Microsoft is???

Read this:

Stop getting tricked into running virusses

And now I start to wonder... if Microsoft is saying that hiding known file types is a good way to catch a virus, then why to they turn that option on standard?

Well, whatever it was must have been quite the joke as this article has been sent to the memory hole.

Google Cache to the rescue again!

M$ is apparently yanking all of their bullshit "testimonials" because of their Switch fuck up.
