Microsoft tweaks ad after complaints from Apple

Apple threatened Microsoft with a lawsuit over Microsoft's "Laptop Hunters" commercial in which a mom and daughter shopped for a new laptop. In the original commercial, the daughter named the price of the Mac laptop and said it was too expensive. Apple then contacted Microsoft and told them their ads were incorrect because they had lowered their prices. To avoid a lawsuit, Microsoft slightly edited the ads, removing the price and instead make a general reference to Mac having higher prices. Read the full story here.
