Remember Lauren who famously said "I'm not cool enough to be a Mac person" in the $1000/17-inch laptop commercial from Microsoft?

The next Microsoft TV commercial in its "Laptop Hunter" series is out and this one features Giampaolo who's looking for a "laptop" with portability, battery life and power.

When considering a Mac, Giampaolo says they're "soo sexy" but then goes on to slam Macs as "more about aesthetics over the computing power." He then says "I don't want to pay for the brand I want to pay for the computer."

It's embedded above and available on Microsoft's site and on YouTube.

Is he right?
