Another awesome marketing win for Microsoft.
I think my wife summed it up best after watching this last night: “I like how it shows that Windows 7 isn’t just for geeks. You can be old, a woman, or black and still use a computer.”

Genius. Evil Genius.
Haha, Whitney, you’re a funny man…
Seriously, just think about it for a minute. Did people really write, speak, and approve the line “Microsoft, huh? So it’s pretty easy to use?” with a straight face? I think not.
Microsoft is toying with us, easing our guard down. You can almost hear their competitors saying “yeah, I know that some of their recent products have been pretty decent, but have you seen that latest commercial? They’re out of touch. They’re on their way out. We’ve got nothing to worry about.”
Man, if Microsoft is on your competitive radar at all, get ready for the sucker punch—this is the only explanation that makes sense. Nobody could have marketing this bad without a reason for it.
