The comedian we always thought of as a "Mac guy", Demetri Martin, is playing Town Hall on October 27th (buy tickets here), and for some reason - he is also doing a series of "webisodes" for Microsoft.
Seems like Mac and PC's are pulling from the same talent pool lately. The marketing campaign featuring Demetri is for the upcoming Windows Vista. As part of the deal, Martin appears in the ten webisodes, they also sponsor his upcoming stand-up tour (and apparently buy advertising for his upcoming prime-time special on Comedy Central). Guess it's a good time to be a funny.
