How come I miss this stuff?

I was catching up on my online comic strips when I came across Penny Arcade's bashing of the latest "Switch" ads from Apple. In case you hadn't seen these ads, as I hadn't, go to http://www.apple.com/switch if you want to have text for my context.

Be prepared to download an obnoxious video player to watch these ads. The ads are about former Windows users that switched to Macs. These are Apple ads, so they have stark white backgrounds and some ooky banjo plucking underneath people's tales of salvation. These ads are also only available as QuickTime flicks and not in the more readily available streaming formats (RealAudio or Windows Media Player). So I installed the software and I had to remember which settings would mess up my Winamp choices. Then I selected an ad and got... another ad (for QuickTime Pro).

( What, hasn't finished kvetching yet? )
