varmittang writes "Tiger Woods has signed a long-term deal with Apple Computers as Mac OS X 'Tiger' spokesperson. He's apparently trying to align himself with the 'best brands' in each market, and Apple just seemed like the right pick." From the article: "Tiger Woods and Apple Computer is the perfect marriage, with both of us striving to be the best. With OS X, Apple is the industry innovator in operating systems and our 'Tiger+Tiger' partnership help tell the world about the benefits of using Mac OS X...Others are now following OS X's taillights, and 'Tiger+Tiger' will make it even harder for them to ever catch up."

well, at least i had to think about this one by ack154 · 2005-04-01 05:49 · Score: 4, Interesting

All of the others were "given" jokes. If OS X Tiger wasn't coming out VERY soon, I would have dismissed this in an instant... instead of 35 seconds. Very clever.

the only thing that I'd like to see id Tiger T-off whacking a G5 300+ yds up the fairway. followed by a few iPods, a couple of Mac Minis, and definately some of the old iMacs... Then I'd like to see the Penguin come out, shake his hand and watch them frolic into the sunset, heading off to burn Bill Gates' house down...
