the "Mojave Experiment"? HAHAHHA

[Jerry®]

Have you seen the latest Windows Vista commercial, i.e: "The Mojave Experiment?" It shows real people OHHHHHing and AHHHHHHing at what the guy tells them is the lastest Windows OS - then they reveal it's really Windows Vista.

I just think it's funny they can't sell Vista using its own name.

And of course when you visit the site the first thing you have to do is install a browser plugin. Typical.

and it's a Beta plugin...

but if you go there in Safari you also get:

We're sorry, this browser, operating system or microprocessor is not currently supported by the Microsoft Silverlight 2 Beta 2 plug-in. You can still experience The Mojave Experiment on our non-Silverlight site.


(of coiurse there is no link to the "non-Silverlight" site)

Videos are on youtube. Pretty funny, yet pretty sad.

I saw that commercial yesterday during MadTV, I thought it was a parody at first!

It's a sign of less than stellar marketing when your tagline is:

"See? Vista doesn't suck as bad as you thought!"

MS is ramping up advertising to "combat" Apple's very direct marketing. I can't wait to see how that works for them.

It's always effective marketing strategy to portray your own customers as morons. Another job well done, M$!

WTF? Is one of the camera angles between someone's crotch?
