I used them once and they made a house call so I didnt have to bring my box anywhere. Nice enough people and they did their job, plus I could see what they were doing the whole time so I know they didn't steal my pron

I'd say it's more Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job! Anyone who says that show isn't the best ever has daddy issues.

I would guess that this place is in Greenpoint, Brooklyn? Why you say? Because Greenpoint is a Polish community. The ad is laced with the polish flag and eagle along with an image of a polish soccer player. Though, that is not a polish accent.

There were subliminal messages? I watched it twice and didnt see them. I must be the kind of person they load those messages in for. (Unless you meant all that useless crap flying in and out of the "ad", and if thats subliminal messaging then Madison Avenue should burn down.)
I did love the cutting edge technology though.....

Well, for those of you who wanted to know where to go, [www.plmicro.com] is their website. It says they opened in 2001, so I don't know how many Tandy's they were fixing.

Love the image they used for a keyboard. Is this ad one of those Long Island prime time commercials they show only during sweeps? Wow. And I thought my Bostonian accent was bad.

If this ran on air in a block of ads, they'd get calls for sure. Brilliant.

@tehronin: Ok, it's not really subliminal it's more "attempted subliminal" or perhaps I should say the rapidly flashing images throughout the piece (that moved - just sub-subliminally) were very pleasing to me personally.

so much can be said...
- At the end when the girl says mister, but the guy says doctor. Pro.
- Or how the baker almost gets her hair stuck. It's easy to see how she got that broken arm.
- And was the doctor licenced? I mean, let's see some credentials.
