This is a keen observation that make a surprising conclusion. I made the same observation but had a completely different reaction.

The stuttering was actually a motif to show this are pictures of different laptops of real people. It also completely tied into the music which was of a stuttery and impactful tone. It was obviously an intentional technique. You will notice that the laptops were also scuffed and looked used.

The whole ad was about how personal a macbook is to its owner. I think apple have been concerned mac's are now so 'mainstream' they want to encourage the view that you are your macbook.



I take your point. I think I would have preferred it had the jumping around been just a tiny bit more pronounced so it was very obviously intentional.

I'll take it over Apple's increasingly mawkish TV spots any day, though.
