In "Broken Promises," PC Guy flashes back to Windows editions over the years (with fashion or lack thereof to match), each promising not to have "any of the problems my last operating system had." The ad ends with the line "this time it's gonna be different. Trust me." Ouch, Apple!

Check out the aforementioned ad embedded below, and the other two ads over at Apple. The latter pair both feature Windows users eagerly getting ready to make the switch -- not to Windows 7, but to a Mac.

What do you think, are the ads effective, or has Apple gone too far with this one?
