So the gist of it is that money can't buy you marketing creativity or even a product you can yourself swear by. Guy, this reminds me of the first chapter from "Art of the Start", to paraphrase "consume your own product" and also "change the world. By the way, you're not still pro mac division are you?

While apparently Microsoft finally got it close to right with Windows 7, I agree that they still need to work on their ads. Their current campaign is almost as lame as the Verizon ads that brag if you buy an iPhone from AT&T all you get is 85,000 applications to help make your life easier and more fun but if you buy a Verizon-networked phone, you get two maps, one of which is irrelevant to you.

I would have to say that Microsoft's advert videos are better then apples any day of the week. At least it's not the same old same old of apple, and even when Microsoft pushes out a better version, Apple is right back at it again witht he same old same old.... Sorry apple but im not buying it anymore. This video was pushed out by an apple fan boy im sure.

If you're not willing to stand behind your words by posting as yourself then why are we supposed to take your words seriously?
