Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates are working together to promote Microsoft.
This 90 second commercial aired on network TV and is the work of French Director Michel Gondry. In the commercial, Seinfeld and Gates are in a shoe store where Gates is buying shoes. Seinfeld offers his advice on how to make the shoes fit. They stand in the store flexing the shoes, then Bill shows his shoe loyalty card and they leave the store together. Seinfeld wishes Gates would make a computer that was “moist and chewy like cake.” Yep. That’s it.
