The "eeew" starts now

I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself but this one is just too easy… *^_^*

I just saw an inspiring pic on Boris’ blog and thought I’d respond…

First of all, I’m no marketing expert, but what on earth are you trying to say when you promote your biggest launch evah(!!! <- ballmer exclamation mark) like this? It could be a slogan for anything and I guess that what it tries to promote is exactly that, a little bit of anything ^_^

I think and also truly hope it’ll be MS’s Ford Edsel. Not that I have anything against MS, but, you know, to keep the competition a little sane and imho somebody who wants to or is going to lead the pack should’ve gotten there by innovation and I’ve seen none of that for like… well, you know what?

“One of Vista’s new features is that it shuts down in just two seconds.”

enough said ^_^

    Good one! I wonder if more people will follow our example and create new versions of this photo.

    I truly hope so, after a long wait, a dull launch and bored execs on the stage, what do they expect? :-)
