New Microsoft Windows 7 Commercials are an abso-fu**ing-lute improvement
The Next Web — Microsoft has launched a few new commercials for the launch of Windows 7. Compared to previous ads this is a serious improvement. You should be able to watch them without having to reach for a vomit bag or feeling those little hairs on the back of your neck going haywire. Kidding aside I must admit that this is good. They don’t make you regret being a Windows user and you end up feeling positive after watching one. One thing though: does the girl at 0:17 really say ‘abso-fucking-lutely’??? ...

Windows 7 launch: Microsoft's new ad "Windows was my idea"
The Seattle Times: Microsoft Pri0 — NEW YORK -- The new Microsoft ad that will start airing to sell Windows 7 takes the "I'm a PC" ads featuring regular people and extends it with "I'm a PC and Windows 7 was my idea."

Like I said in this earlier post, marketing products as something created by "me" is how many tech companies are chasing Generation Y, millenials, people born after 1980 who market resesarch says want everything customized to their tastes. It's the new Me generation. Microsoft has not posted the ad but a Youtube user Hewvideo has uploaded it here: ...

Performance drain: The first public perception test of the Windows 7 era
Betanews — By Scott M. Fulton, III, Betanews The key selling point for Windows 7, as emphasized in a concerted advertising campaign that stretches across both TV and the Web, is that it's leaner, simpler, and faster. It doesn't have to complete the phrase "faster than..." because we all know how to complete that phrase. Microsoft's bet for Windows 7 is that users smart enough to complete that phrase, care. So if some of the comments Betanews has been receiving about Internet Explorer's recent problems being a non-event, or a "YAWN," really did reflect reality, then Microsoft has already lost the bet. The security problem revealed ...
