coderjournal.com — These videos from Novell are hilarious. I am interested to hear the digg user opinion of them. Note you have to suspend reality for a second, while watching these videos, and forget that they are referring to PC as a operating system instead of a hardware platform and that Linux also runs on the PC platform and arguably so does Mac.

Very smart making linux a girl. However, it's Novell so they can't say that linux is free...

Nice :54 second spoof. If you're going to copy someone elses creative ideas with mediocre ones, at least do it in :30 seconds like they do.

This is great. They should do one where Mac and PC are arguing and then walk up to the Linux girl typing away.The PC guys asks, "What are you doing?" and Linux says "Working."

The girl is kind of annoying. I vote for coming up with an original commercial about Linux.

This isn't an ad. It was at (I think) their developers conference. Novell have no intention to put this on TV, AFAIK. <a class="user" href="http://reverendted.wordpress.com/2007/03/19/mac-vs-pc-how-would-linux-fit/">http://reverendted.wordpress.com/2007/03/19/mac-vs-pc-how-would-linux-fit/</a> is the original (and will soon have the third video)
