[...] Microsoft made an appearance on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.” It was a fun piece and Bill Gates handled it well, I think. I think it was a wise move and humanized the new release for all of us. All in all, he was a good sport. Then we had this “interesting” concept of marketing Vista’s release. Whatever, it’s Microsoft’s money to waste, I suppose. Then again, Pirillo has an offer that, after watching the same thing on TV he did, I think may be a better choice for Microsoft’s next release? Anyway, moving on. [...]

Very funny, especially the first episode. You gotta love Microsoft for not taking themselves too seriously.

M$ once again proves their superiority to Apple.

[...] This lack of excitement is likely why the first day punditry was mostly devoted to Microsoft’s $500 million Vista Marketing blitz. Yesterday, I was unaccountably pacific at the prospect, but that was before Microsoft unleashed their stable of clueless viral marketers: DUDE! MAKE THEM STOP! SERIOUSLY, THESE ARE EMBARASSINGLY BAD.

Look, Chris. I’ll try to be fair here. You look at Microsoft’s efforts through Apple-tinted glasses. Of course you’ll hate everything about them! But of course, you’re a blogger so you can put anything you want out on the web. Personally, I just find it so dishonest.

BTW, I caught the video of Gates with Jon Stewart on comedycentral.com and it just reinforced how I feel regarding Bill Gates vis-a-vis Steve Jobs. Gates is approachable and down-to-earth. Jobs is an insufferable egomaniac. The more I read the posts of Macheads on the internet the more I believe that Windows PCs attract people like the former and Macs attract the latter.

“HOW MUCH OF A WASTE OF MONEY THIS WAS”

Except ‘money’ in the world of Microsoft means something quite different to what’s in your pocket in the real world.

Unlike the rest of us, the company are able to throw unimaginably large amounts at projects with NO risk of downside (such as Chapter 11 or complaints from shareholders) the result often being - as in this case - utter bollox, devoid of good taste, intelligence, accessibility or fitness for purpose.

The in-house Microsoft myth of ‘playing the long game’ - funding loss-making products thru’ to Rev 3 by which time they’ll supposedly be really finely tuned and have found their place in the market - has *never* worked. It just encourages the sort of sloppy-thinking-without-accountability we’re seeing in this case (”after the dinosaurs, *anything* has to look better, so go for it”), and which was best illustrated by the Great Longhorn Reset.

It’s a curse. Because who needs joined-up management when you’re never at risk of going broke?

Wow. Those websites don’t make any sense at all. At least they take forever to load.
