Dell Responds to Negative Sun Campaign

Round Rock, TX - Dell has responded to Sun Microsystems recent ad campaign with a series of advertisements which are every bit as vindictive as Sun's.

Borrowing the same razor-sharp wit as the Sun ads, Dell's first ad has the slogan, "liar, liar pants on fire" with pictures of a Sun salesperson with flaming trousers. Another advertisement is headlined "I know you are but what are we?" with a comparative specification list that reads "Sun Sucks" in every box.
