You know those new commercials with the fat geeky guy and the skinny
dorky guy and the jap chick. I am wondering why apple feels obligated
to lie and suggest that a mac can communicate with digital camera's
that pc's can't communicate with.

Maybe because Apples can communicate with cameras that PCs can't. You
misspelled cameras and PCs, the apostrophes indicate possessive singular
nouns, and Apple is capitalized, being a proper noun.

Which cameras are these, exactly?

Oh, and the ad implies that PCs can't work with Japanese digital
cameras, *in general*, which is a lie.


Actually, no. It says *explicitly* "that new digital camera from Japan"
(singular and specific).

singular, yes. specific, no. obviously meant to imply a general issue
though.

You are apparently unfamiliar with the meaning of the English word,
"that".
