In the mid-2000s, Apple launched a long series of popular commercials, in which actor John Hodgman played “PC” and Justin Long played “Mac”. The videos claimed that Windows PCs — this is bad, but Apple Mac is good. However, in 2021, Long appeared in a series of Intel videos to demonstrate the superiority of laptops with the company's processors over Macs.
It looks like Justin Long has changed his technical preferences once again. At the end of Qualcomm's Computex 2024 keynote, company CEO Cristiano Amon said that many people have already started pre-ordering the new Copilot+ PC Windows 11 laptops with Snapdragon X Elite and Plus chips. He added that one individual also wanted to pre-order such a laptop.
The next video (1:17:00) showed Justin Long in the kitchen with an Apple MacBook. It is surrounded by messages of different types (for example, “Caution, battery is low, 1% left”). He waves them off and then types in a query: “Where can I find a computer with a Snapdragon? processor.” The actor then looks directly into the camera and simply says, “What? Everything is changing.” He then takes a sip of coffee as the video ends.
No information on whether this video clip will be included in a full-scale advertising campaign for Snapdragon-based PCs. Also today, Qualcomm announced that Snapdragon chips will be released for all PC segments, including desktops and compact computers.
