There you go, designbum was thinking different and standing up for his principles. Maybe apple want him for their next ad...

In all of my ranting and raving in this thread I forgot to applaud designbum for taking the time to take a stand, write his letter and actually send it. He took action instead of sitting on his ass and just bitching about it (like most of us...me included). I disagree with designbum's overall letter and argument but commend him for taking action. Maybe if we had more people taking action in this country it wouldn't be in the mess its in today.

The argument that we are all just fanboy's of Apple is obviously bs.....especially since the most vocal people in this thread are all on PCs.

not sure how it is driving people away from their site, it keeps the apple navbar at the top of the page.
I dont really give a shit about this issue, it is just something to do until 5pm.
I just love getting rises out of mac-loyalists.

If they were truly trying to celebrate Rosa Parks' life they would have made the ad with no logo. This is not a tribute....its an anvertisment for computers that's trying to pluck heart strings and sympathy, and it's in absolute poor taste.

dobs, the article links to this:
http://www.civilrightsmuseum.org…
and it's not a pop up, no nav bar. just a link

it is an old ad, the logo was there, they just added the year of birth and death this time.
- jpolk0
yeah, learn more links off the site.

I agree, all tributes should be stripped of adertisinig - Time Magazine should have no ads, or even a logo. Televisioon documentaries shouldn;t have commercials or bumpers. Advertising baaaad!
You would like the mag AdBusters..

think you might be going too far there, level2?

I'm simply saying that this keeps being referred to as a tribute...it's not, it's an advertisment.
- Crouwel0
bauts,
ceci n'est pas une pipe
think about this one.
- jpolk0
you are wrong. this was an ad a long long time ago. the only this they are using toe ad for now is to link to their tribute page...
you apparently haven't been to the site or clicked the image, have you? here's a link
this is what the "ad" links to...
http://www.apple.com/hotnews/art…there is no logo in the tribute.
