Default New Windows ad highlights fact that Microsoft makes affordable technology! - 03-27-2009, 04:21 AM

In this new Microsoft Windows ad, when Lauren sees that only a 13 inch Mac is available at her budget of $1000, it makes her comment : 'I'm just not cool enough to be a Mac person'. The sarcasm is unmistakable.

<embed src="http://images.video.msn.com/flash/soapbox1_1.swf" width="432" height="364" id="52qhn4h3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" pluginspage="http://macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" flashvars="c=v&v=0bb6a07c-c829-4562-8375-49e6693810c7&ifs=true&fr=msnvideo&mkt=en-US"></embed><noembed><br/><a href="http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?vid=0bb6a07c-c829-4562-8375-49e6693810c7" target="_new" title="Laptop Hunters $1000 - Lauren Gets an HP Pavilion">Video: Laptop Hunters $1000 - Lauren Gets an HP Pavilion</a></noembed>

She finally walks out with a $699 Windows laptop, highlighting the fact that Microsoft makes affordable technology!

If you have visited WVC home, you may have read that this ad appears to have touched a nerve ...

touched a nerve is an understatement! I have never seen Macboys feel so insecure & insulted.
