Not the hair. Not the attitude. And, most strikingly, not even the person. In the Intel ad, Bhatt is played by actor Sunil Narkar." And it looks like USB 3.0 is out. Man, those ports are fast. Hardware is definitely getting better. One thing I don't understand though is Microsoft Word. They come out with a new release every few years. I don't think Word has added much capability since I first used it fifteen years ago. Haha…the guy in the commercial isn’t Ajay Bhatt!

“That’s not Bhatt.

Not the hair. Not the attitude. And, most strikingly, not even the person. In the Intel ad, Bhatt is played by actor Sunil Narkar.”

Go in and order a coke and then gorge on the 'unlimited' salad and breadsticks! that way you can hit em where it hurts and not only deny them your money (cmon, a coke doesn't count!) but you can cost them supply costs! :D ok, not to bring levity to this, but if you want to hurt OG, don’t boycott them!

I didn't know about this. Unlike Sarah Palin, I don't claim to read ALL the newspapers. I'm joining with you on this. No Olive Garden for me. Not for a long time. TMM: I agree. They got it right. Plus, they brought some good attention to math and science. We need more of this. American Girl,

I think they saw an opportunity to latch onto a popular topic for some free publicity and it worked. Look at the coverage they've received over their decision! It's a disgusting use of controversy for publicity. American Girl, I’m not sure I completely buy into OG’s decision being in support of Sarah – in spite of what they say.

With it, support for education and hardwork. This si completely unrelated, but I am boycotting Oliver Garden for being idiots and siding with Palin on her over drawn out battle with Letterman. Granted I never liked the Olive Garden to begin with, they are fools to side with a politician who looks like a flight attended, albeit a slutty one, (Palin doesn't even understand how adverbs work, how can we expect her to understand the constitution) on an exacerbated issue for which the offender apologized.

See, this is tasteful and humorous. Why can't more ad firms get it right when they throw Asians in commercials? I saw this commercial ad last week. See, this is tasteful and humorous.
