An early TRS-80 commercial – we think this is the one that was shown during the 1982 Superbowl. Not too sure, but should be very similar.

Imagine going up against the company that invented FUD (fear uncertainty and doubt) as a sales tactic.

Imagine doing this as a startup.

Now think about how much things have changed for Apple since 1984.

This commercial is undoubtedly one of the most memorable in terms of commercial impact (i.e. $s) and lifestyle changes over the years since it was broadcasted.

We all know what a man would do to get a pepsi for a woman…. almost ANYTHING.
