Who's More Annoying: Jeff Clark Or The Dell Computer Kid?

[Luciaphile]

This was an unexpectedly hard call to make.  As much as I loathe P/J, i detest the Dell kid even more.

However.

The annoying Dell kid only impinges on my nerves when he's in a commercial.  Having nothing invested in Dell, its commercials, or its casting mistakes, I can safely fast forward, walk out of the room, etc.

I can't quite do that for Roger Davis, who is in a frustratingly huge number of scenes.

So Jeff gets my vote.

Dude--Roger Davis is more annoying.  The Dell Computer guy is kind of amusing IMO.

It's also interesting to note that Dell's current ad campaigns must be doing something right because it was recently reported that, in a time when most computer technology companies are reporting loses, Dell's revenue increased 12%.  

I'm pretty sure I caught some talking head just this morning on CNBC, discussing the "education segment" of the personal computer market.....

Litttle Stevie must be doing one hell of a job because Dell is sitting on fully ONE THIRD of the market in personal computers for students!!!

Jeff Clark, on the other hand, couldn't convince me to buy anything except maybe a contract with a hit man.

I vote for the Dell kid. I think he's cute and has a great personality. We have a Dell and, knock on wood, hasn't given us a bit of trouble.

As for Jeff Clark/ Peter Bradford, I never was a fan of Roger Davis. Always thought that he had a big ego to feed and wanted everyone to know how great he was.

Go Gateway!  

In their August issue, PC Magazine published their annual Reader's Poll. It might surprise you that Dell was ranked highest in overall satisfaction, service, reliability & willingness to buy again for both home and office use. Locally built and Gateway tied for 2nd. Compaq and emachines tied for last place with failing grades across the board.
The only category where Dell didn't place first was for notebooks - it placed 5th behind Apple, Hewlett-Packard, IBM & Toshiba, who all tied for 1st. Gateway came in 7th.  And once again, Compaq came in last, this time tied with NEC.

Add my vote to Steven, the Dell kid. I have to admit that his ads were a small part of the reason I bought my Dell. And, the thought of someone procuring computers for his friends is far more pleasant (not to mention less odorous) to me than someone procuring body parts.

And, if we're talking real people as opposed to their characters, I still have to go with Ben (can't remember his last name) over Roger. Mainly because I've never heard of Ben striking one of his fans.

So those emachine cases made of aluminum foil didn't go over very well?

I suspect that Gateway's service is contributing to the success of Dell. I am surprised to read that about Compaq though, I had always heard good things about them and wouldn't have ever guessed that they would rank with the likes of emachines....

Hey, we have bought three Dell computers.  Our first one is now my daughters for college.  My son bought one, last year we purchased a new one for us.  It has my husbands decision not the Dell boy.  It had to be work friendly for him.  The Dell kid doesn't bother me.  We get some really cheesy commercials during DS, a tattoo parlor and I really hate some of the Sci-fi promos.  


Jeff wins for more annoying at least for me.

Add me to the Dell kid's side.  I've always liked those goofy, easy going characters who sound like they grew up on a California beach.  They seem so harmless and nice - sort of the friendly villiage idiot to the entire world.

As to our old pal Peter-Jeff-Roger-Bradford-Clark-Davis wellllll, I don't really HATE HATE him I just don't look forward to his intensity at times.  For instance, I think he does hideous, irritating love scenes.  If I were Vicky I'd shove him off Widows Hill and go find that lawyer.

I don't mind the Dell computer kid at all really and while I can't say I enjoy those Dell ads I can think of a few of TV ad personalities I hate a whole lot more:

1) KFC Man (KFC)
2) Eva Savealot (1-800 Collect)
3) The Talking Gecko (Geico)
4) Teri Hatcher (Radio Shack)

and that is just the tip of the Iceberg, ladies and gents.

So I'd have to say that Jeff Clark is more annoying.

Go Gateway!  

Oh, and Gateway is trash (sorry, but I really, really couldn't stand that "music video" ad).
