PC or mini-fridge?

PC or mini-fridge

What sounds like a better buy? A refrigerator along with a free ice cube tray or a PC with a free Xbox 360. This   is what PC is advertising now in order to compete with Macs from Apple. Over the last couple of years, there has been a big battle of what computer is better a Mac or a PC? While each has there different advertising approaches, PC's previous attempt at being the better buy is they always update a better type of Windows. Windows Vista is the second oldest one version, and over the last two years Windows advertised about Windows 7, the latest and greatest version that would be faster than any computer against it. However Apple still competed well for a couple reasons. The first is Apple's original brand and type of computer sells itself, Apple has done a great job with advertising, and one of the final reasons is Apple lately has given away a free iPod Touch with every purchase of a Mac. Now PC has come up with another approach at competing with Mac, giving away one of their own products. Whoever buys a new PC this year will receive a free Xbox 360 and controller. The commercial really shows why a PC is more important than to have a mini-fridge, especially when the character from the game destroys the mini-fridge. This shows that there's no contest, why buy a mini-fridge when you instead can have a PC and a free Xbox 360. This way PC will compete with Apple for which company is the better buy.
