I like the apple adverts, its just being competitive with a sense of humour, I mean other products out there will say they're better than X because of Y and others will say they're better than the leading brand for a certain reason, its just apple are far less subtle about it, and put it plainly with two comedians representing themselves as one and the other, the two competing products, its also a piece of clever advertisement.
Now, this does increase the ignorance of fanboys either to bash Windows and Mac, but I don't care, because I pity them for their fan boy games, I've known a couple, they are extremely ignorant and arrogant people, now these two were of the PC and anime fanboy kind, but you get the same for Mac users too, the one we refer to as 'who shall not be named', has a face you want to punch and everytime he spoke you'd want to rip his throat out, and this is coming from the keyboard of a pacifist who has compassion for living things. So I can imagine how the adverts only encourage them.
But this post isn't about the adverts, and I don't think Apple deserve it, they've provided people with quality and reliable products and good customer service. Plus I don't think this situation will ruin Apple, they've got a lot of money, it may be like playing football with a twisted ankle for them, but they'll soon make that money, it just means Steve Jobs will have to go without that Diamond statue of himself. Plus if they do go under, they will have someone to bail them out, as said that would mean Windows would monopolise the market and would also mean bad news for apple's clients, someone will likely bail them out if they go under again.
